This is by no means a new creation, but I was shocked at the lack of
response Keith got for this one.  The whole industrial/military feel is
great; which is hard to do since most MOCs that try to look serious still
look 'cute'.

Your stuff rocks, Keith!  Very inspiring.  Plus, I dig your obscure
references on your brickshelf descriptions.

hydro-electricity, and protected by Federal Police.  Initially designed as a
response to the CONDOR PROJECT, a network of these towers defends the
City-State from agressor pantheons.  This project is loosely based on a
playing piece from the "Fortress America" board game.

More pictures will follow, and feedback would be much appreciated.
Lay the smack down!

Thank You,

Totally. I remember seeing this before and then got caught up on Keith's other creations and forgot to go back. Like the Hot Weather assortment, the base is wonderful in it's 'dirty' details. I'd really like to see more of the ambulance ship on the (...) (22 years ago, 2-Apr-03, to lugnet.build.military, lugnet.space)

Keith, I did not see this last summer but I would also like to add that you have definitely captured an industrial/military feel to this setup! The details are really extraordinary--from the wheel on the pressure tanks (?) to the working welder. I (...) (22 years ago, 2-Apr-03, to lugnet.build.military, lugnet.space)

  Re: Laser Tower
 
Felix, (the Sea-monkey-pontiff?) Thanks for the kudos, I really appreciate it. The laser tower is one of my favorite projects. The greatest compliment in the thread was that it was easy to picture the Laser tower down the street from station 45. Its (...) (22 years ago, 3-Apr-03, to lugnet.build.military, lugnet.space)
