(...) Excellent as always, Brad. I think I enjoy your descriptions almost as much as the MOCs :^) ~Grand Admiral Muffin Head (23 years ago, 17-Sep-01, to lugnet.build.arch)
 
  Re: Two buildings
 
Those are both really great. The use of color is nice and they both have a good level of detail. They don't look "flat" like many 2nd rate LEGO buildings.

  Two buildings

  Re: New Building (brown)
 
(...) Those are two very nice buildings. The extra details, the cornices for example, really make the buildings interesting to look at. Keep up the good work, Chris (23 years ago, 16-Sep-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.build.arch, lugnet.general)

  Re: New building (Tan)
 
(...) What did you use to cut the pieces? ;-) J-2 knows cutting LEGO pieces is a pet peeve of mine. Although, I have to admit I <gasp!> cut a few pieces in one of the buildings I've posted recently... :-O JohnG, GMLTC aka 'J-1' (23 years ago, 16-Sep-01, to lugnet.trains.org, lugnet.build, lugnet.build.arch, lugnet.general)

  Re: Large Baroque Palace
 
Thanks for the compliments. Yeah - Although this doesn't use any exceptionally rare parts, it uses a lot of semi-rare parts in large quantities.
