  Re: New MOCs: Some really tiny NYC landmarks
 
(...) Stefan: Glad you liked them! Yeah, the "1x2 plate with center stud" ( (URL) ) is really your best friend when doing this sort of thing. And other tricks...like the very top of the Empire State Building: I have a 1x2 brick set atop a 1x1 brick, (...) (22 years ago, 3-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.arch)
 
  Re: Abston Church of Christ
 
(...) Hey Amy, Yeah, I wouldn't take what the Slashdotters and the like have to say as anything even remotely disturbing. I think they may be picking on the subject and your dedication to your pet, which are things that high-flying twenty-somethings (...) (22 years ago, 3-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.arch)

(...) LOL! :) Yeah, these buildings are a vast departure from my 5-foot-tall skyscrapers and whatnot... probably better too, because it saves me a lot of money and they're quick to build! :) Glad you liked them. Sean (22 years ago, 3-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.arch)

(...) That's my favorite, too. The Citigroup building didn't look like much of anything until I started adding the subterrania, and now I love the way it came out. It works well, since the recessed plaza under the tower butts up against the subway (...) (22 years ago, 3-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.arch)

(...) I actually spent a little time working on a Chrysler Building at this scale, but I gave up after fighting with the tiny scale that I was working at. But you've given me a reason to give it another shot, so I'll let you know if anything comes (...) (22 years ago, 3-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.arch)
 
  Re: Abston Church of Christ
 
Thanks, Scott. I don't really care what people say about it or me, since even those who find it as a result of some disparaging post seem to enjoy it, judging by the email I get. You'll note I've quoted a few of the more amusing comments on the FAQ (...) (22 years ago, 3-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.arch)
 
  Re: Abston Church of Christ
 
Amy & All, (...) various forums and what not, this is one of the reasons I don't really do any outside of LUGNET and MichLUG of course. : ) I just want to say your all of your work, especially this project, is simply awesome, it is a beautiful (...) (22 years ago, 3-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.arch)
 
  Re: New MOCs: Some really tiny NYC landmarks
 
Very cool. I like the detail you've managed to put into them at this small a scale. The underground detail completes the models, IMO. Nice. -Stefan- (22 years ago, 3-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.arch)
 
  Abston Church of Christ
 
Well, it's been up for a month and a half and is handling the traffic okay, so I thought I might risk an announcement... The Abston Church of Christ is back online. I've added some "...for dummies" style explanations about minifigs and other stuff (...) (22 years ago, 3-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.arch, lugnet.announce.moc) !
