(...) Very nice! Excellent use of parts. Particularly the corner 1x1 panels as chairs. On the peaks of the bungalow roofs, are there fences embedded in there to give that cool effect? If not, what did you use to achieve that effect? Looks stunning. (...) (17 years ago, 22-Aug-07, to lugnet.build.microscale, FTX)

That is really convincing. I want to go there! I especially liked the deck chairs using the "cheese wedges" and what inspiration to use those odd little corner thingamees for chairs! (17 years ago, 22-Aug-07, to lugnet.build.microscale, FTX)
