  YAL: Yet Another Loader :)  [DAT]

  Loader (new one) vs. UAV!  [DAT]
 
This is kinda like a follow up to Jeremy H. Sproat's lifter/loader; it inspired me to make this one! Oh!

  Re: New minifig-scale anthromorphic lifter/loader
 
(...) The patterns that didn't show up are (incorrectly) made up of lines instead of polygons. L3P can't distinguish between edge lines and pattern lines, so it leaves them out altogether.

  Re: microfig aerospace fighter
 
(...) There's no concrete scale for microfig, if that's what you mean. I use two different (and pretty much arbitrary) scales myself -- 341:1 and 115:1. Your microfig models tend to be closer to the latter scale. Cheers, - jsproat (25 years ago, 16-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)
