(...) I like it! Very good piece economy. A pleasant buzz thru the Tattooine canyons. I gotta learn how to do those landscape generations. -Tom McD. when replying, set your spamcake to stun. (25 years ago, 24-Aug-99, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.starwars)

(...) Is the background a height_field? If so, what resolution image did you use? How did you generate the image? Are the clouds straight from the POV documentation, or did you change them somehow? --Bram (25 years ago, 24-Aug-99, to lugnet.cad)

(...) cool, cool, cool, John! (...) i can definitely relate to the frustration of kids getting a hold of a model. i live in constant fear with projects until i get them safely recorded in ldraw. keep up your most excellent work with those star wars (...)
