I just added a couple of pics to brickshelf of two different houses I've made. I made them strictly in LDraw as I don't have enough slopes for the roofs. I also left out the interiors, but you can't see that any way. The larger house has a (...) (24 years ago, 17-Sep-00, to lugnet.build) !

Mine is the female town minifig with red pants, and a red-white-striped shirt, and long red hair tied up at the back. That's my favourite! And, the classic space minifigs too, preferrably the yellow ones. --Tobias (24 years ago, 16-Sep-00, to lugnet.build.minifigs)

Well, if you're going to be so persistent on the praise, I guess I'll have to drop the modest :) But all joking aside, thanks again. As for the hatch, the original mecha was built around the hatch.

Nice additions Travis! I think I like this mecha even more than the first time I saw it on your website and slowly went through the .DAT file.
