|
| I just posted pics of the new castle model I finished last night. This one is a minifig scale 3D version of the US Army Corps of Engineers castle logo. This castle took just a matter of weeks to build, unlike the other one which is two years and (...) (24 years ago, 17-Jun-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.castle)

Or hardware store? Always learning something new, (...) (24 years ago, 17-Jun-00, to lugnet.build.minifigs, lugnet.space)

| (...) Wow! The Payback is awesome! I love the way the side turrets rise up and rotate into attack position. The detail work on Aves is great. I like the little symbol on his right arm, looks a little like Boba Fett's symbol. Great work! Wilson (24 years ago, 17-Jun-00, to lugnet.build.minifigs, lugnet.space)

Right next to the tree is says "Small Spruce Tree" and also, the small tree has six "layers" of branches, whereas the larger tree has nine "layers". (...)

| I used Brasso to take off the UFO junk. I don't consider it ruining the piece, I consider it saving the piece from TLG's ruining it by making it useable only within the UFO Theme.
