Presenting my first Moonbase module. It is inspired by E's Little Bot Hangar, and it uses the new 10brick high corridor design parameter. As usual I have some smack to lay down, but its all on mocpages...land of the free...home of the harsh (...) (21 years ago, 14-Sep-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha) !!

I know, isn't it horrible? Hey Eric, if you need help, bring Jama's remains to NWBC. I'll help get him back together if it takes all weekend. I'm not passing up a chance to see Jama in the brick, no matter what. Take care, Soren (URL) (21 years ago, 12-Sep-03, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) Thanks, Paul! The color scheme grew out of a need to build those shoulders since the curved half panels aren't available in Dark Grey. I wouldn't mind revisiting the model design with a different colorscheme, but at this point, the parts (...) (21 years ago, 12-Sep-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Dave, For what it's worth, I really like the color scheme. The sand green is probably one of my favorite Lego colors. I really like the head and the shoulders look pretty cool as well.
