  Re: LZ-140 "Mirage" Completed
 
Thanks Shaun! But I still think you're way ahead of me, your AT-ST and AT-AT, are truly wonderful blends of design and function. Thanks again, I try my best! (...) escalator! (...) a (...) (24 years ago, 20-Jul-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Peasant House...Chris, Shiri
 
Here's an even better picture from Brickfest of all my buildings grouped together: (Thanks to Jason Rowoldt) (URL) (24 years ago, 20-Jul-00, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: Peasant House...Chris, Shiri
 
(...) I have also built a bunch of buildings in this style, although with a roof made of roof bricks. You are right about the black 1x1's and plates. I managed to get a near-monopoly on those pieces in the last Auczilla (at great cost!), and snag a (...) (24 years ago, 20-Jul-00, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.build)

  Re: Mecha Legs
 
(...) Right. As of March 1989, published works do not need to have a copyright notice in order to gain protection. However, it's still good to put it there, because apparently "I didn't know that was copyrighted" has been a successful legal defense (...)

  Re: LZ-140 "Mirage" Completed
 
Absolutely amazing model, Mladen. The scale: astonishing. The intricate detail: unbelivable. The overall visage: horrifying, a wonderful blend of Organic and Mechanical - Very reminiscent of BubbleGum Crisis, in my mind. The fact that it was (...) (24 years ago, 20-Jul-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Mecha Legs
 
(...) All day yesterday I sat there and debated whether or not I should weigh in on this ... and come back today, and find I missed the flurry altogether. Ah well, better late than never ...

  Re: Peasant House...Chris, Shiri
 
Sheerly awesome! I built 3 similar peasant houses/shops which closely resemble the one Chris created. I have a yellow/black tudor, red/black tudor, and blue/black tudor. Who needs those specialty tudor pieces when you can create the same effect on (...) (24 years ago, 20-Jul-00, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: Mecha Legs
 
(...) Exactly right. Further the copyright is by default! That is, you have to disclaim it to immediately put something in the public domain. And I believe in the US, at least, an explicit assertion is not required, although it helps protect your (...) (24 years ago, 20-Jul-00, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.underground)

(...) Bad form. Repetition of this kind can lead to suspension from a group. It's happened before. (...) Technically, it's copyright infringement to use a piece in the same way that Lego uses a piece in an official set. I'm so glad they don't really (...)

  Peasant House
 
I finally got around to uploading pics of a peasant house I did in LeoCad awhile ago...check em out here: (URL) show the house in various stages of construction, as well as the interior. Not much interior detail, but peasants had little, right? ;-) (...) (24 years ago, 20-Jul-00, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: Mark's Lego Creations Update!
 
I used a Dremel tool with a little rotary-saw type bit. It has a very thin edge, so I didn't lose very much of the plastic. ~Mark (...) (24 years ago, 20-Jul-00, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)

  Re: Mark's Lego Creations Update!
 
We-ellll.... ok, I'll admit it. I took the nearly-useless Throwbot shooter arms and cut them off near the ball-joint (where there's a technic axle shape) This allows them to be set into anything that can accept a technic axle. I also cut those (...) (24 years ago, 20-Jul-00, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)
