You may find David Karrs tanker inspiring: (URL) for the bricks, I ususally use red bricks for the hull instead of black. The reason why is because red bricks seem to be in more abundance then black. (24 years ago, 27-Aug-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.town, lugnet.modelteam)

(...) Yeah, you're right! I just tried to build it, guess what -it looked really stupid :-) But I only placed it inside a completed house, I didn't build a new one. I think that the shelf makes best in a kitchen, and none of my houses have a (...) (24 years ago, 27-Aug-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build)

(...) Hehe... but it was in *your* unconscious, your dream, *your* ideas... (...) Not neccessarily... if you use trans. cylinders, the have hollow tops, and they can fit under stud-bottoms of a 1*N plate (and 1*N bricks as well). -Shiri (24 years ago, 27-Aug-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build)

I'm remembering more, now... I think that the shelf was attached to first a 1*6 white brick, which was "hanging" from the ceiling. That way, the shelf wasn't so high, so the minifigs could easily put things on it. Or maybe it didn't, I'm not sure... (...) (24 years ago, 27-Aug-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build)

Did you know that you can connect the tops of those wine glasses to the bottoms of plates directly *without* the need for 1x1 round plates? (...)

I like Heavy Gear, because it has very utilitarian designs, like real military vehicles and mecha will look like in the "near future". Of course, the same can be said for Gundam, but they are more like what military vehicles and mecha will look like (...) (24 years ago, 26-Aug-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Well an awesome model deserves an awesome reponse, IMHO! ;-) When I said nice colour sceme, I meant it was excellent how you followed the real Gundam colour sceme. Plus, I'm amazed when anyone makes something out of so much white, since I could (...) (24 years ago, 26-Aug-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) Gosh, thanks Mladen. Really, I just combined the look of two of my favorite Gundams: Tallgeese and DoubleX. I was trying to capture the knee-look of Tallgeese, but I wasn't quite able to do it because I don't have enough white plates. :^/ I (...) (24 years ago, 26-Aug-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
