This is a futuristic capital building I created. (URL) utilizes a number of different classical architectural styles, and some art-deco, but the final look is decidedly futuristic. The central pillar is made from vertically mounted, curved, Paradisa (...) (24 years ago, 23-Nov-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.build.arch, lugnet.cad.ray)

(...) Mark: nope, it's not. I ran out and bought a 7313 (what the heck, they're 20% off at Zellers, so it came out to just over $22 (about $15 $USD)) and the pieces are blue grey (very close to the shade Jay rendered his Ties in, but a little more (...)

(...) Well it really could fit any of those categories. Maybe they should create a category for entries that cannot be decided on. Really, that has to be the wackiest model ever designed (catagorie 11!!!). And I thought I had built the strangest (...) (24 years ago, 23-Nov-00, to lugnet.build.contests, lugnet.space)

(...) It makes sense, I guess. You don't see the faces so why waste the money on the printing. Or, maybe you are just looking at the back of the head and forgot to turn it around (don't laugh, I did that once late at night). But about the TIE Pilot, (...)

Nice. I like a lot of different things about it. I like the very small transept and choir. Usually small churches are purely rectangular. Only larger buildings tend to exhibit the cross-like geometry. I like how this one has the mini-transept and (...) (24 years ago, 23-Nov-00, to lugnet.build.arch)

The issue with fractioning groups is that a fan must scan more groups to find new MOC's. I only build mini-fig style models, but I like to look at pretty-much everything else. I think that the mecha sub-group is a good idea because it is a HUGE (...) (24 years ago, 23-Nov-00, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.build)
