Heya Check out my latest model: (URL) called the F-39 Makko and it is my *supposed* replacment for the F-35 maybe 30 years down the road or so. It steals many design cues from the F-35 and F-22, as it is designed to be a stealth aircraft, but I (...) (22 years ago, 7-Aug-02, to lugnet.build.military, lugnet.space, lugnet.build)

That, and a post office design in a diorama at the Portland (Maine) airport, where they have a number of models on display. The one I'm thinking (...)

You know, so many (& myself) make buildings intact, when something like this comes along we forget that they're made out of little pieces. I've never seen any "damaged" Lego creations before. It's a very unique, and great building! (22 years ago, 4-Aug-02, to lugnet.build.military, lugnet.town)

I really like the idea of a small troop insertion ship, and you've done a great job seeing the concept through. I think what I like most is the constantly shift plane of angles on this little beauty....a difficult job on smaller ships for sure. Just (...)

Each engine pod is attached to the fusilage by two click hinge joints. On the pod side, there are two normal 1x2 click hinge bricks. Attached to each one of those is a click hinge connector piece. On the side of the fusilage is a 2x1 technic brick (...) (22 years ago, 30-Jul-02, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build, lugnet.build.military)

(...) Very Cool design you have. Were you inspired by any specific thing or is this an original design? Great use of the Alpha team cockpit, I have been having trouble incorporating it into some of my designs. Question: Can you explain how the wings (...)

Nice little tank! I think you can probably play around with some 1x2x1 thinwalls and actually get a minifig in the turret hatch. The Japanese did actually make some nice looking armor, but for some reason I can't fathom, never made it to mass (...) (22 years ago, 27-Jul-02, to lugnet.build.military)

Sorry to respond to myself, but I've already made a modification (raised the hatch and added the front lights), and I figured out how to use my timer so I have a clearer profile and front shot. (2 URLs) best LFB (22 years ago, 25-Jul-02, to lugnet.build.military)

Hi everyone, I got a bug in my ear this evening to fool around with trying to recreate one of those tiny Japanese light tanks.
