  Re: First block of Main Street for Brikwars, Train, or Modern town display
 
(...) Yah, the more I look at it the more it does look like a movie theater although I think one story is kind of short for a theater. Unless you assume the theater pit continues into the basement. My origional thought was that it was some sort of (...) (24 years ago, 30-Jun-00, to lugnet.town, lugnet.build.arch, lugnet.org.us.nelug)

Hey Eric, Aside from chipping in on the comments (it looks fabulous :-), I'd like to say thanks for putting in a pic of that green-haired gal... now I *have* to buy that set.

  Re: First block of Main Street for Brikwars, Train, or Modern town display
 
(...) Hey Eric, I'm not sure the small one-story building with the triangular sign sticking out above the sidewalk is a store at all. What it really reminds me of is a small, one or two screen movie theater - the kind of operation that's being (...) (24 years ago, 30-Jun-00, to lugnet.town, lugnet.build.arch, lugnet.org.us.nelug)

(...) Looks very nice. Damn, I would LOVE to blow that up sometime in a Brikwars game. Too bad I am in DC. I have the Brikwars itch and no one to scratch it with. Well, that didn't sound so nice. You know what I mean. :) (Imagines a squad coming (...) (24 years ago, 29-Jun-00, to lugnet.town, lugnet.build.arch, lugnet.org.us.nelug)

I was thinking the other day that I was telling you how I could never do buildings and how they always just turned out to be 4 walls and a roof. :-) I guess I (...)

(...) Thanks! (...) Oops! I knew I forgot something. I had meant to add a back door like in other buildings. The assumption being that the stairs were accessed there and it was not a secondary entrance to the store. (...) I have been thinking about (...)

  Re: First block of Main Street for Brikwars, Train, or Modern town display
 
Very cool! I for one am impressed! I really like the look of the corner building. Reminds me of a lot of suburban downtowns with retail on the bottom, and trendy apartments up top. Only suggestions I'd make are: Some kind of exterior covered (...) (24 years ago, 29-Jun-00, to lugnet.town, lugnet.build.arch, lugnet.org.us.nelug)

Well I won't go into to much detail here because most of it is on the web page.
