(...) I spotted these in Brickshelf and was impressed with both of the models - the snowplow is nice for its little details and functions. The helicopter is a pleasant surprise - I looked atthe set and builtthe main model and then went to another (...) (18 years ago, 16-Mar-07, to lugnet.build.microscale, FTX)

Anyway, I'm glad that the LDraw files are appreciated. Eventually I intend (...) (18 years ago, 16-Mar-07, to lugnet.build.microscale, FTX)

Here are some little models I made from the "(URL) Cars>" set: a snow plow and a lil' helicopter. The snow plow should be a familiar sight to anyone from wintry climes. The shape of the main plow isn't really right for a highway plow, but it does (...) (18 years ago, 14-Mar-07, to lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.build.microscale, FTX) !

Hello dear fellows! Today it's time for my updated MINI version of the famous Battlestar Galactica (Classic 1978s series). This one is much more detailed than my first version.

Very nice! The texturing is great and the overall look is very well done. The spires strike me as a little thin but I can't think what you would do about it... Thanks for sharing! God Bless, Nathan (URL) (18 years ago, 12-Feb-07, to lugnet.build.microscale, FTX)

(...) I do't think it's too short. I think it's too low. But it's a fantastic model. My favourite bit is the texturing with technic bricks with axle holes and axles. The reflection is a great idea too. Tim (18 years ago, 12-Feb-07, to lugnet.build.microscale, FTX)

Good job on your model. However there is one thing that bugs me. The main dome/spire is way too small/short See picture: (URL) If you can just adjust it, then it will be a great model. (18 years ago, 12-Feb-07, to lugnet.build.microscale, FTX)

Arthur, Very nice work, I like how you used some non-obvious pieces for the various windows! I'm not sure I'm sold yet on the mixing of grey and bley, but you've done it better than I've seen it done before. Thanks for sharing! Magnus (18 years ago, 29-Jan-07, to lugnet.build.microscale)
