| Paul, Steering like this is easy enough if you have space under the vehicle. Check out the pix showing the underside of my Wild Boar APC, in this case I was even able to incorporate suspension, but this system wouldn't work with just the four wheels (...)

| (...) Klaus, this is just beautiful! The diorama compliments the massive airframe wonderfully. I especially like the polyhedral wing. How did you achieve it, and keep the surface so uniform and tight near the joints? Now, all you troops need are (...) (18 years ago, 12-Jan-07, to lugnet.build.military)

| (...) Klaus, Simply marvelous, I saw a few pictures of your Gigant in an earlier post praising German AFOLs, and it's great to see even more of it, and the other vehicles in your diorama. It's amazing to consider that it could even fly. Thanks, (...) (18 years ago, 11-Jan-07, to lugnet.build.military)

I really love these built up, heavily snotted slope noses which are somewhere between classic lego park (...) (18 years ago, 11-Jan-07, to lugnet.build.military)

With the nose stud pattern angled up at about 25 degrees or so I was surprised to see how well you tied this back in (...) (18 years ago, 11-Jan-07, to lugnet.build.military)

| Hello Everybody! I just wanted to present my newest airplane MOC: the Messerschmitt Me 323 Transporter. I presented this model at the fan event in Frechen together with a little diorama: (URL) information about the actual building of the model: It (...)

If you're really into the harsh reality of militaristic economics, you can get about 22, maybe 23 tops in there ;-) Cheers! ~ Paul. (18 years ago, 10-Jan-07, to lugnet.build.military, FTX)

And plus my son likes driving the vehicle sideways with both (...) (18 years ago, 10-Jan-07, to lugnet.build.military, FTX)

My dad bought me that set way back then and it was a favourite because it had steering that worked and a simplistic engine with moving piston when you pushed it along the floor. (...)

Wolf, Yes I toyed with the idea of making it a few studs wider originally, but the scale of the vehicle looked out of place with the wheel diameter... and those are the only wheels in my collection (from 1980's technic set ;-) that would work.
