    Aves —Mark Sandlin
   For cryin' out loud... last week I posted the pics of Aves and the Payback, and I just realized I forgot to add the HTML for the pics of Aves. That's what I get for staying up until 1AM on a weeknight. :^P Anyway, here they are... Aves, my custom (...) (24 years ago, 15-Jun-00, to lugnet.build.minifigs, lugnet.space)

     (...) I am very impressed! How did you get the UFO printing off the saucer hull sections? I have quite a few of those I may wish to "ruin". Best wishes, Aaron (24 years ago, 16-Jun-00, to lugnet.build.minifigs, lugnet.space)
    
         Re: Aves —Mark Sandlin
     I used Brasso to take off the UFO junk. I don't consider it ruining the piece, I consider it saving the piece from TLG's ruining it by making it useable only within the UFO Theme. I really hate theme-specific printing on stuff, with the possible (...) (24 years ago, 16-Jun-00, to lugnet.build.minifigs, lugnet.space)

     (...) to (...) I agree about some printing, but stickers can be worse. Do you know if it will work on clear sections, such as the big Stingray windows? Brasso. Wal- Mart? Paints and such section? Or hardware store? Always learning something new, (...) (24 years ago, 17-Jun-00, to lugnet.build.minifigs, lugnet.space)

      (...) Works great on Insectoid wings, so I imagine Stingray windows would be OK. (...) Household chemicals is where I found it, I think. J (24 years ago, 17-Jun-00, to lugnet.build.minifigs, lugnet.space)
    
         Re: Aves —Dave Johann
      (...) It works well on: X-wing Cockpit, Insectoid wings, anything that isn't a slope. Slopes produce...interesting effects. They become smooth like any other piece. I picked up my Brasso at K-mark, but I suppose Walmart has it too. (24 years ago, 17-Jun-00, to lugnet.build.minifigs, lugnet.space)

         Re: Aves —Bryan Hodges
     (...) I don't know if I agree with that... at least stickers are optional. Unless you buy the parts used with the stickers already attatched. But even then you could use something like goo-be-gone to get them off (or even WD-40! that's the one thing (...) (24 years ago, 19-Jun-00, to lugnet.build.minifigs, lugnet.space)
   
        Re: Aves —Wilson Raska
   (...) Wow! The Payback is awesome! I love the way the side turrets rise up and rotate into attack position. The detail work on Aves is great. I like the little symbol on his right arm, looks a little like Boba Fett's symbol. Great work! Wilson (24 years ago, 17-Jun-00, to lugnet.build.minifigs, lugnet.space)
