| Hey Jojo, I was wondering if we would have another Luther installment from you this year. I don't know enough about his biography to know what other scenes you will do. Any hints on upcoming MOCs? Mind if I post this in CC? Or are you planning to do (...) (18 years ago, 1-Nov-06, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

| (...) There's several reasons I chose them, but the most important is that they give a much tighter curve than 1x3's. They also give a less "regular" appearance than 1x3 construction, where each round is aligned above or below each other. Finally, I (...) (18 years ago, 30-Oct-06, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

| (...) Thanks Tony! (...) I somewhat agree, but I'm yet to find a technique that lets you do round portions of that size while keeping them "solid" looking. It's also very parts intensive - On 4 of the towers, easy layer uses 10 1x2's and 10 1x1 (...) (18 years ago, 30-Oct-06, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

I'm glad you're building in the brick, but this seems like one of those scenes that might look better rendered with smoke and shadows and whatnot. Photographed LEGO always looks as bright and (...)
