Hi all, K'taark pointed out this sight with some great military models on it a couple of weeks ago, but I figured it would be worthwhile to point everybody in the direction again. The composer (?) posted a number of new models at his site: (URL) (...) (23 years ago, 23-Oct-01, to lugnet.build.military)

Hey Rick (and all)-- For that interior detail, I saw something very interesting this weekend at TRU: A MegaBloks cut-away model of a 'boomer! I don't know if it would be worth a look, as it's nowhere near minifig scale, but I found it sort of (...)

This is my project for our next LUG meeting. I needed a tester for the brickshelf thing and chose this. Not a particuarily complex or accurate model but not to shabby if I do say so myself... Take a look (URL) (23 years ago, 20-Oct-01, to lugnet.build.military)

(...) In the past I had made a few tracked tanks and APCs. I didn't have enough of the track pieces so I had to fill in a few gaps with the really thin chain type. It didn't look good at all, but it was all I could do. Too bad I never took any pics (...) (23 years ago, 16-Oct-01, to lugnet.build.military)

My only suggestion, if it's possible to do: Can you lengthen it about 50%-66%? I (...) (23 years ago, 15-Oct-01, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.boats, lugnet.build.military)
