  Re: Elliot is Back! New Models! Redesigned Site!
 
(...) Something must be wrong with the src code of your index page. I can see both frames, nav.html and contents.html if I ask for them directly. My browser definitely supports frames, because my personal website is frame based, and I can view it (...) (20 years ago, 14-Jul-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

  Elliot is Back! New Models! Redesigned Site!
 
About 1 year, 6 months, and a week ago I posted my last update to my lego site... And now (thanks to tables, frames, and javascript), I would like to present my redesigned site!!

  Re: 2 New Starfighters- Kestrel and Bloodstar II
 
(...) I started out just toying around with the wing idea and developed the rest from there. My approach to mixing the 2 light gray shades of elements was to more or less evenly distribute them throughout the model. (...) I think many in the (...)

  Re: Moonbase Module: Mount SciBrick - Mech Bay 05
 
(...) It is an impressive build, altho - I tend to think there should be more going on in the rooms. It seems like the minifigs are wandering randomly. I mean, sitting on an active volcano, I'm sure there is more than enough to study and research (...) (20 years ago, 11-Jul-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space, FTX)
 
  Re: 2 New Starfighters- Kestrel and Bloodstar II
 
(...) Todd, Both are very nice - the bionicle/technic style of the Vedraan is very cool - plus I like large bots. The Kestrel is a very nice fighter. Interesting the choice of mixing old grey and new. Did you attempt to use it as a different color, (...) (20 years ago, 11-Jul-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: 2 New Starfighters- Kestrel and Bloodstar II
 
(...) Very elegant fighter; the Kestrel. I think the somewhat flat nose gives a good conrast to the slender shapes elsewhere. It's nice to see someone daring to use wings (with studs showing!!) on spacefighters. -NB (I'm a dino too, so I don't (...) (20 years ago, 11-Jul-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) Thanks for the props, Eric. I did'nt intend to drop out of the community for so long, but I've been working full-time, had my computer crash on me and had to get a new one- which caused me to lose access to my website, and I've had trouble (...)

  Re: 2 New Starfighters- Kestrel and Bloodstar II
 
(...) Thanks, Bill. The new and old light grays don't blend too bad- Honestly, I think the combo creates an interesting effect. However, I'm not so sure about the dark grays. Later, Todd (20 years ago, 10-Jul-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)

Cool, MOCs, I enjoyed checking them out, but the real reason I am writing this reply is this: I wanted to convey my happiness in seeing you return to LUGNET.

  Re: 2 New Starfighters- Kestrel and Bloodstar II
 
(...) These are fun, Todd. The Kestral has a nice, slender airframe that works really well with it's 'light' designation. It's good to see that canopy in use as well. The angling of the rear fins nicely breaks up the line and gives it some (...) (20 years ago, 9-Jul-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)

  Re: Name that Mecha

But while I'm no expert in mecha, I am an expert in cheesy thumbs up photos- and you sir do a fine one. While Lenny began the trend here at (...)

  Re: Name that Mecha
 
(...) In fact I studied the Knight-Gigant pretty closely while I was building this. I love the look of it, but when you look closely there's a lot of single stud connections in there.

  Re: Name that Mecha

(Lime Diet Coke was my inspiration, sadly) I like the look of this, something about it (possibly the thrusters of the back and kinda the feet) reminds me of the Sentinels from X Men Evolution. (...)

  Re: Name that Mecha
 
(...) Awesome "Lenny Shot", Allister. I can't remember seeing a mech doing a "thumbs-up" before. The mech is also cool. You got all the joints to work plus the right sculpturing to prevent it from looking like a box with stick-limbs. The proportions (...) (20 years ago, 7-Jul-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
