Oooo I might try a different colored "nose pieces"
Red,Yellow, to see if I can get a color scheme like that.
Maybe I can come up with a "Blue Angel" style color scheme.

Now if they made LDraw FOR THE MAC!!!
I would actually create instructions and post them.

I actually did design the whole box, all sides, and it looks legit.
Need a logo other than my name and it could be any fans creation!!

Hey Todd, Just a quick note to let you know that thanks to some recent legwork by James Reynolds (my cohort in LDMC (URL) we're finally a couple of steps closer to or hope of a Mac based editor. We'll post more info when it's available. Matt (23 years ago, 18-Jan-02, to lugnet.build, lugnet.cad)
