I've just posted an update to my Lego page ((URL) It is a visual catalog of the 16 Starwars models that I've designed over the last few days. Each ship is displayed in oblique view and you can click on each one to download LDraw .DAT format (...) (25 years ago, 21-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.build, lugnet.starwars)

Awesome models, Karim! I really like the Imperial shuttle and the AT-AT! That Dragon Mech is truly a wonder. Have you ever submitted that to TLG? Keep building! Scott Sanburn (...) (25 years ago, 21-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.build, lugnet.starwars)

Minifig scale tends to get bogged down in details, while microfig (...) (25 years ago, 21-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.build, lugnet.starwars)

The SW models really do captrure the essence of the various ships quite well. It's really impressive to see such a good portrayal of these SW ships with such a small number of parts. The Slave 1 is my favorite, but all are impressive. Cheers Karim! (...) (25 years ago, 21-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.build, lugnet.starwars)

Out of all the original creations I've seen so far on the web, Karim's are the best. No one else has a deeper understanding or how to build and how to overcome the "stacking" problem of Lego bricks. The man is a master. Dave (25 years ago, 22-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.build, lugnet.starwars)

I wanted to say my favorite is the X-Wing. I love to use of the 1x2 "gun" parts for the wings. The A-Wing is also one of my favorites. I need to post my microfig Millenium Falcon. It is smaller than the one Karim did. (25 years ago, 22-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.build, lugnet.starwars)
