| Hey Richie, that is a really impressive warship you have there. It's easily one of the finest Lego surface combatants that I've seen (right up there with Richard Parson's Escort Carrier and Mattias Martensson's Fletcher) and it's even more (...) (22 years ago, 10-Jun-02, to lugnet.build.military)

| (...) Thanks! You can't beat SNOT building for flowing hull profiles, although it doesn't seem as good for wide ships as it does for narrow. By stepping the plate offsets (ie 1 stud, then 2, then 3, then 4 or 1,1,2,2,3,3,4,4 etc) you can simulate a (...) (22 years ago, 11-Jun-02, to lugnet.build.military)

| (...) It's certainly large, but it's 'in proportion' rather than 'to scale'. The hangar is a bit oversized compared to our ANZAC frigates, but not overly so. (And the real ones have hangars for side by side helicopters in any case!) I was pleased (...) (22 years ago, 11-Jun-02, to lugnet.build.military)

| Well it's official, SNOT building can do just about anything! Snottler III is great -- the bow flare is especially well handled, I think. She really has the feel of a modern warship, and she's of a good relative size for one too. Brilliant work (as (...) (22 years ago, 10-Jun-02, to lugnet.build.military)

| Aye, aye...she is a real beauty!! What an amazing piece of work...the detailing, the incredible thin but flowing hull profile and the helicopter w/hanger....that's just too cool for this Canuck. Incredible job...would have been a treat to see first (...) (22 years ago, 10-Jun-02, to lugnet.build.military)

| Hey Joel. I recently caught The Arrow on late night TV a few weeks ago (about a month or so after the discussion about attempting to build a Lego version) so I find it interesting that the movie has seemingly appeared out of the ether not once but (...)

| Ahoy! I've uploaded some pics of the third in my line of SNOT hulled naval ships, this one is a modern Guided Missile Frigate, fully kitted out for modern warfare other roles. It was enveiled at LUG'OZ 2002 on Sunday. Blockade enforcement and Border (...) (22 years ago, 10-Jun-02, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.pirates, lugnet.build.military) !

| Just a quick note - while channel surfing, I just found - FOX is airring The Arrow -- the movie based on the design/production of the Avro Arrow. It seems fitting to mention after the recent discussion of building one from LEGO. It's airring right (...) (22 years ago, 9-Jun-02, to lugnet.build.military)
