Hats *off*. A moment of silence for the old girl, she was the best ever built... And my compliments, LFB, well done with the disassembly. When I took apart Atlas two weeks ago I was a bit more... shall we say brutal? Me, the *real* Atlas (a (...) (23 years ago, 8-Apr-02, to lugnet.build.military)

(...) An incredible MOC, an incredible backstory. I like them both! A handful of questions: -How did you get the fifth blade on the rotor? -Is that a customized tile on the front of the rocket pod? -The canopies: Have you thought about placing (...)

(...) Excellent truck, Jeff! My friend just forwarded the link to me -- I sadly hadn't seen it sooner. I've been trying to think of how to make a pop-up missile pod for a SAM-site, could you give me any pointers on how you made yours? -- Mark Nelson (...)

Magnus, You've certainly got a point about the main rotor...I'd originally fitted a four-blade model to my Hind too, back before I started going over the aircraft again for realism. It was a close call for me too, but after long consideration I took (...) (23 years ago, 8-Apr-02, to lugnet.build.military)

Perhaps a moment of silence, followed by Taps, is in order? I'd suggest a 21-gun salute, but it looks as if that's what did her in to begin with ;) -s (...) (23 years ago, 8-Apr-02, to lugnet.build.military)

Hi! Great googly moogly, it's the incredible disappearing ship! (URL) 31 pictures; go in sequence (they don't list that way, sorry). If I can figure out how to make a slideshow, I'll do that eventually. The "joy" sequence must await a good (...) (23 years ago, 8-Apr-02, to lugnet.build.military, lugnet.boats, lugnet.pirates)

Very nice, Chris! I've been toying with the idea of building a Hind for some time now, and hopefully will get around to it by the summer in time for Brickfest. I don't know about that five bladed propeller, I'm tempted to just make it a fourbladed (...) (23 years ago, 8-Apr-02, to lugnet.build.military)

Hi guys and girls. Any of you who follow the Star Wars line might already be aware of this, but Lego has a new color they are using in 7153 Jango Fett's Slave-1. Its a navy/dark blue that when I saw the pieces just SCREAMED out to be used in a late (...) (23 years ago, 7-Apr-02, to lugnet.build.military)

Building in the passenger capacity was fairly easy; the passengers themselves were the real surprise. Hasn't anybody else used M-Tron backpack harnesses to give minifigs customizable carrying capacity? The Adventurers packs were a beginning, but I (...)

...but it goes well with your well done Hind. I like how you incorporated the passenger carrying capacity of the Hind (a feature that I believe is rarely used in real life) to make an all purpose SOF Battlewagon. Also, your use of the 2x2 round tile (...) (23 years ago, 6-Apr-02, to lugnet.build.military)
