(...) Wow! That's really quite good. I like the way the baselines are imbeded in the ground. The fence around the outside is a neat design as well. Creative usage of those click hinges in the back wall. Also, do I see Zorro behind the scoreboard? (...) (22 years ago, 3-Sep-02, to lugnet.build.arch, lugnet.town)

Hello again all! I've posted a message a few days ago announcing my new MOC, La Tour Kisc. Since then, nothing, niet, rien. I was hoping for a few comments, positive or not, about my work.

(...) I'm glad you like it. To answer your question: Since the most common tan piece seems to be the 2x4 brick, most of the exterior structure is made up of such brick. The walls, and so forth, are all 2x wide. The statue, however, is kind of heavy (...) (22 years ago, 10-Jul-02, to lugnet.build.arch)
