(...) Unfortunately I did run out of black corners. It took a lot more than I thought to do that roof. I have the tip top pieces in black, but changed them to red just to be consistent. I need 31 more black ones. There isn't even that many on (...) (23 years ago, 20-Nov-01, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Those look pretty good. I've been working on a water mill myself for a while now. Maybe one day I'll finish it and get pictures up. I'm trying to use a motor so it will turn on its own. It looks like you've used lots of gears to slow it down. (...) (23 years ago, 20-Nov-01, to lugnet.castle)

Anthony, it's still a great model but I am beginning to think it needs more wing feathers, esp. after seeing the CAD versions. The wings look kinda skinny... And you know the cross-posting police are gonna come down on you like a ton of bricks, (...) (23 years ago, 21-Nov-01, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Me too. However if you were to build a 4 foot long lego dragon, you'd know too, that the wings being that size are very hard to make look 'full' and still make it so they move and don't destroy themselves when you pose them. I hearby challenge (...) (23 years ago, 21-Nov-01, to lugnet.castle)
