(...) A very nice MOC of a Sherman. I thought the angles would be hard to capture, but you did a great job. Thanks, George (23 years ago, 26-Nov-01, to lugnet.build.military)

Hey'all! It's been awhile since I posted a new mecha, but here it is, the Byzantine Tiger, (yes it's the same one as in my story) I don't really like giving a explanation for my mecha anymore, but this one sort of begs it so here goes, My (...)

(...) Here's a quick mock-up of a fuselage cross I've been planning to put on my own Bf-109 in progress. It keeps the fuselage small, and rounded. Rather than have the tiles on top, one might even get away with 1x2 plates-with-center-stud, and a 1xn (...) (23 years ago, 26-Nov-01, to lugnet.build.military)

(...) the same way as the original, the shape is about right, which is very hard to do. Good idea to use that Star Wars canopy. I like the cross on the wings - but I challenge you to put one on the fuselage as well... (SNOT plates would do it, and (...) (23 years ago, 26-Nov-01, to lugnet.build.military)

For my next model, I chose the Messerschmitt BF-109 Emil. I have to give thanks to Shaun Sullivan and Gary Thomas; Sullivan for inspiring the use of screwdrivers as machine guns, and Thomas for inspiring the blended insignia. Thanks, you two! (now (...)
