(...) Very cool! It reminds me of a futuristic Sherman. Great detail. One nitpick: it looks like the headlights protrude past the front of the tracks and would break if it hit a sharp incline. Jeff J (23 years ago, 9-Apr-02, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military, lugnet.loc.au)

Yes, a moment of peace. Now it's my turn to dismantle the Mantis! When I get back from School I work nights for a week. Then some group shots of the dying Mantis. So, after that let's have a meeting and take the Mantis apart! Calling the Gardenslug (...) (23 years ago, 9-Apr-02, to lugnet.build.military, lugnet.org.us.gardenslug)

I'm pleased to announce the completion of my Brickshelf uploads from this weekend's SOV photo shoot: (URL) sections are significantly expanded, and I've created two new folders: a Technical folder containing the first of quite a few more images (...)

Lindsay, The rotor blades were simple enough to build, actually: as I mentioned before, they're based on ten black plate-hinges from my old 8839 Technic Supply Ship. Essentially I folded five hinges into a near-closed shape like a V, arranged them (...) (23 years ago, 9-Apr-02, to lugnet.build.military)

(...) Howdy! (...) Yamato? Great Eastern/Western? A type XXIII U-boat? ;-) Space is good for architects, true LEGOists deny it. Have fun building again! Pedro (23 years ago, 8-Apr-02, to lugnet.build.military)

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)
