I've uploaded some pictures of the Snottler II. It is a rebuild of the patrol boat Snottler, lengthened, widened and upgunned. (The forward 20 studs or so are a direct lift from the original Snottler). The Snottler II is a guided missile frigate, (...) (22 years ago, 25-Apr-02, to lugnet.build.military)

Some really nice models here. The level of detail is what I find fascinating, from the tank track wheels on the Panzer to the definition of the chopper nose (Getting the round shape with a square medium is really impressive). Really cool! Joe Meno (22 years ago, 25-Apr-02, to lugnet.build.military)

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)
