  Re: NELUG Brickwars 04/01/00 pics are up.
 
(...) Thanks! A bunch of people have mailed in and told me that a lot of parts of BrikWars were ripped off from Warhammer 40k. I haven't actually ever read or played WH40K so I wouldn't know for sure, but it seemed likely enough, so I went down to (...)

  Re: Russian T34/85 Tank
 
(...) I dunno, they looked kind of like KV-Is or BT-20s to me. Terribly 1935-Soviet looking to me. best Lindsay (25 years ago, 5-Apr-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.general)

  Re: half timbered houses are online
 
(...) you'd be using those timbered castle pieces that seem to be so hard to find, but I'm really glad that you were able to do such a good job with just plain old bricks! I *like* it! My favories were #4 and #5. For those of you who are not (...) (25 years ago, 5-Apr-00, to lugnet.build)  
 
  Re: Russian T34/85 Tank
 
You are right, getting the angles of turrets is very difficult. The Tiger1 was relatively easy compared to the T34/85. I think this version is around the 6th rendition I attempted and I am still not completely happy with it, but it is close enough (...) (25 years ago, 5-Apr-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.general)

Hi Legomaniacs ! It's done, I published my first Lego-Buildings on web, some german half- timbered houses. If you like to have a look, please check: (URL) Or you could have a look @ brickshelf (Adrian Rohnfelder) (25 years ago, 5-Apr-00, to lugnet.build)  
 
  Re: Russian T34/85 Tank
 
(...) Another fabulous piece, bravo! On first glance, I thought you had actually modeled a KV-1, due to the high, straight sides of the turret Getting the proper contours of turrets is not an easy job, at least for me. It seems like the /76 model's (...) (25 years ago, 5-Apr-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.general)

  Re: Russian T34/85 Tank
 
Joseph, in answer to your question regarding the grey parts, they all come from many kits (no auctions) I own around 5 xwing kits and 7 snowspeeders :). The turret rotation is very smooth and uses a large 4 x 4 stud turntable with rounded base (...) (25 years ago, 5-Apr-00, to lugnet.build)
 
  Re: Russian T34/85 Tank
 
i went back for more details and i have a couple of questions, carl. where do you get your great selection of grey parts, part auctions? also, i'm quite impressed with the standing turret that seems to rotate within the main chassis. is that a (...) (25 years ago, 5-Apr-00, to lugnet.build)

  Re: Russian T34/85 Tank
 
(...) Carl, As a long-time aficionado of Soviet armour, I can say that your T34/85 is gorgeous without reservation. It has a little element of JS-I to it (as did the real thing in later production iterations)--a much larger tank--and I love how (...) (25 years ago, 5-Apr-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.general)
