I think that your building technique is not the best choice for the dodecahedron. The bends along the edges draw the eye away from the vertices. This makes it hard to visualize the faces. But for the larger fullerenes, your building technique is (...) (16 years ago, 23-Jan-09, to lugnet.build.sculpture)

(...) David, I ended up with 17 'extra' 1x6 plates. This bag was a one-off, there were no other bags like it. The rest of the 1x6 plates came mixed in with other bags. Unfortunately I didn't count the exact number of plates in the bag, I simply (...) (16 years ago, 29-Sep-08, to lugnet.build.sculpture)

(...) I haven't bought the Taj Mahal, but I did build one of the 1st Release UCS Falcons, and I also ended up with a bag full of extra parts. What I had, though, was a bag full of 2x4 right wings, and 2x4 left wings. 23 of each. The set inventory (...) (16 years ago, 28-Sep-08, to lugnet.build.sculpture)

Very nice scene. Having tried my hand at an underwater diorama myself, I appreciate the challenge, but this looks great. Very clever construction on the various fish types. -Brendan (16 years ago, 27-Aug-08, to lugnet.aquazone, lugnet.build.sculpture, FTX)

(...) Thanks, Dave! Any resemblance to actual fish was purely accidental, but I'm glad you saw some familiar faces! The coral was the most challenging part, especially trying to figure how to make it "branch" in a realistic way. Dave S. (16 years ago, 26-Aug-08, to lugnet.aquazone, lugnet.build.sculpture, FTX)

It gives the diorama a lot of depth. The colors are fantastic and (...) (16 years ago, 25-Aug-08, to lugnet.aquazone, lugnet.build.sculpture, FTX)
