Check it out under: (URL) have seen it in real live two days ago and it looked even better as (...) (22 years ago, 24-Apr-02, to lugnet.build.military)

| | New Battle Carrier: HMS Venerable
|
|
Greetings all, After venturing into LFB's style of SNOT building with my wet navy Pre-Dreadnought, I decided to try out the hull building techniques on a Space Battle Carrier. The result is HMS Venerable: (URL) I'm pretty pleased with the ship. It (...) (22 years ago, 24-Apr-02, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military)

I got a wild hair to build a new halftrack to replace the innacurate one I am currently selling as a kit. Keeping with the spirit of my original model, I built a Panzergrenadier manned vehicle based on the famous SdKfz 251 ("Saving Private Ryan," (...) (22 years ago, 23-Apr-02, to lugnet.build.military)

(...) 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 (22 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 (...) (22 years ago, 9-Apr-02, to lugnet.build.military, lugnet.org.us.gardenslug)

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 (...) (22 years ago, 9-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 (...) (22 years ago, 8-Apr-02, to lugnet.build.military)

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 (...) (22 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).

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 (...) (22 years ago, 8-Apr-02, to lugnet.build.military)
