  Re: Roof question
 
(...) Duane, a 3x3 (double concave) 33 degree "valley" slope has not yet been produced by LEGO. Neither has a 1x2 (triple) 33 degree half pyramid roof peak, nor the parts needed for an "L" or "T" roof ridge. So that makes it difficult to produce a (...)

  Roof question
 
I put this in lugnet.town, but then found this group as well, so... I’m working on my first house-type model and have a roof question for you experienced town-builders. Unfortunately, I cannot use the roof slopes for this project, because the roof (...) (17 years ago, 15-Feb-08, to lugnet.build.arch, FTX)
 
  Re: Dome of the Rock
 
(...) Very, very nice work, Arthur. That curved wall under the dome is the highlight, certainly, but the rest in magnificent as well. Spotlighted! Cheers Richie Dulin (17 years ago, 14-Feb-08, to lugnet.build.microscale)
 
  Re: Dome of the Rock
 
(...) Arthur, Well done! I like how you did the 4 frame windows on the second floor with grill tiles. Nice. Have fun! C-Ya! Rich (17 years ago, 14-Feb-08, to lugnet.build.microscale)  
 
  My first MOC of which I am rather pleased-not really sculpture
 
I was contracted by Wichita State Shocker Mindstorms event to creat some trophies for their event. They wanted me to incorporate some of my WoodStitches (TM) which are LEGO bricks covered with wood veneer. In the 21 unique trophies used over 20 (...) (17 years ago, 13-Feb-08, to lugnet.build)
 
  Dome of the Rock
 
I swear I didn’t build this in 4 days. I had started a number of projects over the summer but they all took a back seat when I was commissioned to build a model of a local church. The church was completed in early January and I’m finally getting (...) (17 years ago, 13-Feb-08, to lugnet.build, lugnet.build.microscale, lugnet.build.arch) !

In lugnet.announce, Arthur Gugick wrote: [snip] (...) Nice work! I think your dome looks really good, and I'm planning on borrowing your technique for a MOC currently underway. I have to admit, I was so psyched to see a usable dome technique that (...) (17 years ago, 12-Feb-08, to lugnet.build.microscale)
 
  Ley Ward Vignette series
 
Because of some serious time restrictions I decided to get small (as Steve Martin once said) for a while. I think it's a mixed bag of vigs, but it was fun building some tiny tributes to our own Ley Ward (aka Professor Whateverly), and definetly an (...)

Can I re-submit my Steam Speeder Bike? Heh. -Matt (17 years ago, 6-Feb-08, to lugnet.build.contests, FTX)
 
  More military MOCs
 
Hi all, It's been a while since I last posted MOCs, but I've been very busy building into the new year. The Central Brick Union (CBU) and the Northern Brick Republic (NBR) continue their endless struggle for world domination, and have added various (...)

  Re: Has Lego begun producing "war toys"?
 
Hi all, A good, intelligent, and civil debate here, I'm sorry I didn't see it earlier. There is no doubt that LEGO has moved away from their diehard position against violent toys. I'm not sure the new Agents line is really any more military looking (...) (17 years ago, 5-Feb-08, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build.military)
 
  St. Peter's Basilica
 
My next Lego landmark: St. Peter's Basilica. Or should I say a cathedral based on St. Peter's Basilica? Clearly the colors are wrong but that was a matter of economics coupled with the amazing pieces I found at the Disney pick-a-brick. Also, by (...)

  Re: Sheldon Brown (1944 - 2008)
 
(...) Ah yes. There's nothing quite as funny as a good April fools joke. Sheldon's were among the best. (...) Thanks for the feedback, and for the spotlight. Cheers Richie Dulin (17 years ago, 8-Feb-08, to lugnet.build.vignette, FTX)
 
  Re: Sheldon Brown (1944 - 2008)
 
(...) He will be missed, especially his April Fools posts. A fittingly simple vignette. Very touching. Spotlighted. (17 years ago, 8-Feb-08, to lugnet.build.vignette, FTX)
 
  Re: New mecha: Tyr
 
(...) Hey, Eric The colors are tan, white, light gray, and a small amount of black. glad you liked it! Jon (17 years ago, 7-Feb-08, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: New mecha: Tyr
 
Hey, this is a good one! Is that tan, or dark tan or something? I like those white slopes too! I started to realize more about this build when I looked at the pictures of the side view. Good work! Eric Sophie (17 years ago, 7-Feb-08, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: New mecha: Tyr
 
(...) Thanks, Richie As far as the shoulders, they were made oversized on purpose. There are a couple of old Battletech designs such as the Charger, Griffin, and the Hatamoto that had armor baffles on their shoulders. Glad you liked it!! -Jon (17 years ago, 7-Feb-08, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Sheldon Brown (1944 - 2008)
 
(URL) The cyclist is gone, but the cycle remains. (URL) Sheldon Brown> 1944 - 2008. To the cycling community he was a leader, a hero and a guru. And a little eccentric. I take my cycling helmet off to him. Richie Dulin (17 years ago, 7-Feb-08, to lugnet.build.vignette, FTX) ! 
 
  Re: New mecha: Tyr
 
(...) Nice work, Jon! I particularly like the choice of colours - subtle, but interesting. One minor criticism: the shoulders seem a little broad, a studs width of two off each side would help, I think. Spotlighted! Cheers Richie Dulin (17 years ago, 7-Feb-08, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Hoth LEGO Store Display
 
Due to the great feedback on the (URL) first MOC> that I've done for the LEGO store at Bridgewater Mall in New Jersey, I've been asked to build a new one to replace it. The theme this time is Hoth which many will recognize as a composite of previous (...) (17 years ago, 7-Feb-08, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build, lugnet.announce.moc, FTX) !
