(...) The curved 1 x 4 x 6 glass panels are great pieces. If they were easily available, I would concentrate more on interiors, because they are visible. MOC builders now have to battle 'collectors' of sets for a few key architectural pieces. pete.w (...) (24 years ago, 27-Oct-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.town)

Thanks Terry K., who deals with the Model of the Month at www.ldraw.org gave me this advice. I'll paraphrase just in case he objects to any of his specific wording.

Yes - Those parts are almost impossible to get nowdays. I remember me thinking how "sissy" the Paradisa sets were when they were out. Only later, after seeing some people's MOCS using these windows did I realize how cool they were! There is a really (...) (24 years ago, 27-Oct-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.town)

Hmmm I actually create my rendered files a little differently. If you use MLCAD, you most certainly can see the x,y,z co-ordinates in the bottom left corner when you move the mouse around in the Top, Down, Left, Right, Front and Back "View Angles" (...)

That's so cool! I was having real brainaches trying to work out the co-ordinates I wanted to set my camera up to use, and this makes it fairly simple. Dan (24 years ago, 27-Oct-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.town, lugnet.cad)
