  Finally! Pallas Spaceworks Update
 
I finally got the site updated! Nine new models, including a new medium mecha, and a new category: Fleet Support Vessels. (URL) (24 years ago, 31-Jul-00, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.publish)  
 
  Re: Finally! Pallas Spaceworks Update
 
Great work, Karim! I always enjoy seeing your new models; I particularly like the passenger liner; you've really captured the essence of a luxury cruiser there. The engineering vessel is a fine piece of work, too. I must say that my all-time (...) (24 years ago, 31-Jul-00, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.publish, lugnet.space)

(...) liner; (...) :) It's my favorite also :) (...) Well, I'm in a sorting phase right now, so it will be a little while before I have anything new... although I have some cool ideas. Thanks! --Karim (24 years ago, 31-Jul-00, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.publish, lugnet.space)
 
  Re: Finally! Pallas Spaceworks Update
 
Wow! Amazing as usual! I see on the back of your Scarab Field Unit, it has those flags set vertically. Can you believe I did the same thing yesterday while building my own mecha (except its bi-pedal), mine uses 8 of them and they are heat sinks. (...)

  Re: Finally! Pallas Spaceworks Update
 
I love the chain gun on your new mecha. I was watching Gundam Wing the other day, and I was thinking "Why not make a chain gun like HeavyArms?" Looks like you beat me to it. ;^) I love the use of parts to make the curved bow on the spaceliner too. (...) (24 years ago, 31-Jul-00, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.publish)

  Re: Finally! Pallas Spaceworks Update
 
(...) You know, I actually built that gun 2 years ago... It was on the mecha I called the Gargoyle, which I never finished. I have since taken the gargoyle apart, but kept three of its guns assembled, hoping to find a use for them. I've now used (...) (24 years ago, 31-Jul-00, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.publish)

Over all, I'm pretty happy with the way the Scarab worked out though. I look forward to seeing your (...) (24 years ago, 31-Jul-00, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.publish)
 
  Re: Finally! Pallas Spaceworks Update
 
Mine are very tightly packed by using 8 1x2 plates with handle, and 2 1x1 plate clip lights. BTW I downloaded the .dat files for the Scarab and Panther, very nice! I also see that the Panther uses a similar ankle, and shin joints like my Neroid, (...) (24 years ago, 31-Jul-00, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.publish)
 
  Re: Finally! Pallas Spaceworks Update
 
It is always great to see new models by you Karim. You know, I think it was you and Ben Vaughn who got me back into Lego building about 1.5 years ago. I remember feeling very inspired by your earlier work. Your line of microfig scale capital ships (...) (24 years ago, 31-Jul-00, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.publish)

(...) Sorry it took me so long to respond to you... It's really funny that you should say that.. because it was some of your microfig models that inspired me to build the Pallas Spaceworks capital ships at that scale ;) Have fun! --Karim (24 years ago, 1-Aug-00, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.publish)
