  Re: New TIEs
 
(...) You know, you may be right... I forgot about that episode. I also seem to remember a couple of episodes of DS9 where the Maquis use some smaller ships... I wouldn't know if smaller ships can be found elsewhere in the ST universe however, as I (...) (24 years ago, 22-Nov-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: New TIEs
 
(...) No, I think it comes down to the weapon sizes. Not many brigs were built, because a brig could not stand against anything larger (with more guns) than itself...therefore, the ships tended to be larger. I think the same ideas were used in Star (...) (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: New TIEs
 
(...) The ST universe has fighters, they just don't focus on them in the shows. If anyone recalls the Next Gen episode where Wesley (yeah I know, ugh) almost gets kicked out of Starfleet Academy for doing some risky stunt in a fighter/trainer. (...)

  Re: Princess Mononoke/San -- LEGO sculpture
 
oh, no, sorry... it does no image preprocessing (no rotating or such)... I misunderstood your request. eric (...) (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.build)
 
  Re: Princess Mononoke/San -- LEGO sculpture
 
(...) Ah! I can rotate the image to the desired angle and pass it through. Thanks. For your patience (^_^;) (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.build)
 
  Re: New TIEs
 
(...) I built a microfig scale Borg Cube... <G> (4 2x4 black bricks) Actually, another cool ship to build would be the Delta Flyer from Voyager. My biggest problem with Star Trek is there are no small one/two manned fighters. All of the crafts are (...) (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: New TIEs
 
(...) Actually it's a Danube Runabout from DS9 and it's minifigscale. It's still a big thing though. (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: And I shall call him ... MiniMech
 
(...) Solid mecha. It goes well with your other models on brickshelf. Very good use of printed pieces. The "worn" bricks from the Rock Raiders helps give it a battle worn look. My favorite part of it is the pulley wheel on the knee. I finally (...) (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: New TIEs
 
I'm guessing the Defiant from DS9. It's a capital ship that might still be manageable at minifig scale. More so than the Big E or Voyager anyway. ~Mark "Muffin Head" Sandlin (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: Princess Mononoke/San -- LEGO sculpture
 
(...) Do you actually have time to work at a day job anymore? :-) I've always been impressed by the Tux sculpture, and would like to try building one myself (for fun, if nothing else). Any estimates on the quantities of black/white/yellow involved? (...) (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.build)

(...) I released a version of my Pixelego Program many, many months ago... it does 'studs up mosaics': (URL) ---...--- Eric Harshbarger / eric@ericharshbarger.org / www.ericharshbarger.org "Oh please, if people are going to start telling the truth (...) (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.build)
 
  Re: Princess Mononoke/San -- LEGO sculpture
 
(...) Thanks for showing the internal structures of one of your pieces. It does remind me a lot of the insides of the Statue of Liberty, internal bracing in the vague shape of the intended form, then a relatively thin skin attached at points. Think (...) (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.build)
 
  Re: more WWII models, plus one minimech
 
(...) Shaun - I love these models. The detail is perfect for models of this size - but can you tell me what colours these are done in? Are they all light and dark grey, or have you used tan? All the pictures seem to have a greenish tinge, but I know (...) (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.build)
 
  Purple speeder? (was Re: A-wing fighter)
 
(...) That large blue Naboo speeder reminds me of something I saw last year. On The Big Breakfast (UK morning TV show), they showed a load of Episode 1 Star Wars Lego before it was released. One of the sets looked a bit like that large speeder, but (...) (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build)

  Re: Princess Mononoke/San -- LEGO sculpture
 
(...) Gee eric, sounds to me like *you're* talking about Eric Harshbarger to me. BTW if LD calls you about a bug in Mosaic, it's resolved, it's probably a bug in the shopping cart instead. ++Lar (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.off-topic.fun)
 
  Re: more WWII models, plus one minimech
 
(...) minimech that I hadn't really thought out completely until later... I usually don't at all like the look of using the click-hinges as mecha legs... while the hinges (especially in pairs) are capable of handling quite a bit of weight, they look (...)

  Re: more WWII models, plus one minimech
 
(...) sticks in the cockpit are a bit cumbersome, but that's about the only nitpick I can think of. I like the vent tile on the back of the SW engine... it's a simple detail, but it just jumped out at me as making sense on the back of a large (...) (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.build)
 
  Re: New TIEs
 
What, the Enterprise?!? NCC-1701 would have to fill a decent sized room in order to be minifig scale. Egad! ~Mark "Muffin Head" Sandlin (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build)
