  New and kinda-new stickfig mecha wallpaper and stuff
 
Hey all, It's not Gundam, it's not 5 feet tall, and it certainly doesn't use throwbot / buy-o-nickel parts. Nevertheless, here's some quick Jeremy news: I've just uploaded a new wallpaper called "Flight". Enjoy! (URL) new item I'm excited about is (...)

Wow, that looks really good, nice I'm interested in what program you used to model the enviornment, it looks spectactular. Great job Jeremy, -Geordan- (...) (22 years ago, 18-Jan-02, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space, lugnet.publish)

(...) Very impressive! Excellent work on the wallpapers! I love the green laser, the thruster flames and especially the pair of missiles. I wouldn't mind knowing which programs you used to create this as well. It smells like a combination of Bryce (...) (22 years ago, 18-Jan-02, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space, lugnet.publish)

(...) to follow. A couple of suggestions tho - give an overall "Parts List" for the entire model, not just on a step-by step basis. Also, place more than one step per page. Maybe 2-3, depending on the image sizes? If the images were shrunk down a (...) (22 years ago, 18-Jan-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) Thanks, I modeled that landscape using nothing but MegaPOV. The shape of the ground is a heightfield based on the pattern image type, and the texturing is accomplished using slope-dependent textures. The source for the scene can be found at (...)

  Re: New and kinda-new stickfig mecha wallpaper and stuff
 
(...) Thanks Borislav. Believe it or not, the scenes were built using free tools. MLCad and L3P+LGEO provided the core Lego parts, and the scenery effects -- rocket flare, landscape, sky, etc. -- were all added in using POVRay code (MegaPOV in some (...)

  Re: New and kinda-new stickfig mecha wallpaper and stuff
 
(...) Heh heh thanks. :-, I was wincing a bit about that -- it almost looks like the cheesy sfx they used on the old Buck Rogers and Battlestar Galactica shows. But we all love cheese... (...) Awesome, thanks for the feedback. This is exactly what I (...) (22 years ago, 19-Jan-02, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.publish, lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: New and kinda-new stickfig mecha wallpaper and stuff
 
Jeremy, As usual, I'm very impressed with your additions. The attention to detail, not only in the figures, but in the scenes borders on obsessive. In particular, I like the Sandman, and its colour- and theme- relations. There's something about that (...) (22 years ago, 19-Jan-02, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space, lugnet.publish)
