  Re: F-16N Viper MOC
 
Impressive build. I especially like your solution to the nose, which seems to be a sticking point for so many. You also pulled off a camoflage look very well (something I doubt I'll ever be brave enough to try, piece limit or no), and as mentioned (...) (18 years ago, 27-Jul-06, to lugnet.build.military)
 
  Re: Mini-fig scale F-16 Fighting Falcon
 
(...) Thanks Brian, Bulk brick sales at outlet stores indeed would indeed be a likely explanation. One of the reasons why I haven't used bricklink is that I am pretty sure that if I do, I'll become hooked. I have browsed around and seen loads of (...)

That's the only way I can think of where they can get their (...) (18 years ago, 26-Jul-06, to lugnet.build.military)

(...) I buy all of my Lego parts on www.bricklink.com. I haven't bought an actual Lego set in years. I just order the parts in the quantities and colors that I need, so I don't accumulate a large inventory of un-used or un-needed parts. Ryan (18 years ago, 26-Jul-06, to lugnet.build.military)
 
  Re: New WWII planes flying on Brickshelf
 
(...) Thanks for the heads up on this Mattias. Great to see ZHOD adopting some of your building style. His planes make a welcome addition to the community. Did I miss a discussion on Bryce's B-1? Great models guys. (18 years ago, 26-Jul-06, to lugnet.build.military)

  Re: F-16N Viper MOC
 
(...) Hi Magnus, Thanks for the reply. I'm glad that you like my F-16. As I wrote before, when trying to build realistic models with LEGO you always have to compromise, since you simply cannot reproduce all the difficult shapes you'll find on an (...)

Oops, I forgot to mention my Flickr page at: (URL) I found this website a couple of weeks ago and I think it is pretty cool because you can upload as many pics as you want for only about $25.00 per year.

  Re: F-16N Viper MOC
 
Ralph, Very nice indeed, and an interesting camo scheme too! It is always interesting to see how different builders approach modeling the same thing in their own way. I do like how you pulled off the landing gear - I always found that challenging (...) (18 years ago, 24-Jul-06, to lugnet.build.military)

(...) Hi Tim, Thanks for the reply. I'm not a heavy user of any of the LEGO CAD software. I've dabbled around a bit with LDRAW/MLCAD, but it is not my cup of tea. I might consider 'building' my F-16 with virtual LEGO if I run out of parts or ideas (...) (18 years ago, 24-Jul-06, to lugnet.build.military)
 
  Re: F-16N Viper MOC
 
(...) Thanks for the compliment. For an IAF aircraft (very much in the news right now) I think I would have to replace the sand-blue with sand-green.

  Re: F-16N Viper MOC
 
Very nice! Great job with the colour scheme, landing gears and nose. You can also call that IAF scheme and put weapons on it. My only suggestion is this part in new dark gray is perfect for the engine exhaust: (URL) (18 years ago, 23-Jul-06, to lugnet.build.military)

  New WWII planes flying on Brickshelf
 
Hi I guess you have seen Zhod's new great collection of WWII planes on Brickshelf. (URL) describes his models here: (URL) are to some part inspired by my models (Spitfire, Bf-109, FW-190 and Mustang) (URL) (18 years ago, 21-Jul-06, to lugnet.build.military) !
