(...) Thank you! (...) Originally, there were some sketches and floor plans - but not intended as a building sketch for LEGO, but as a scenario layout for an AD&D adventure module. I did a few design tests (the grey walls, and the diagonal tudor) (...) (21 years ago, 17-Jun-03, to lugnet.castle)

Hi Christian, (...) I like to do something similar, using bricks in a off color (often red or yellow) to mark specific spots in a design, removing them while building continues. (...) No need to excuse yourself, the explanation seems clear enough to (...) (21 years ago, 20-Jun-03, to lugnet.castle)

(...) I took the (long) weekend to actually start the second part. My main problem at the moment ist to provide adaequate table space for the model, as the first part is about 80x80cm (96x96 studs), and the second part is about 50x120cm (64x144 (...) (21 years ago, 23-Jun-03, to lugnet.castle)

(...) I stumbled on this article accidentally and it intrigues me. I agree that LEGO is most likely aware of what many afol's want. Sometimes they do give us these things. However, it usually is because that piece is necessary for them in a set, not (...) (21 years ago, 23-Jun-03, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Some people inside LEGO may be aware of the existence of AFOLs, but most of the company does not seem to care about this potential market. Learning new paradigms is something especially large companies are more or less incapable of. For years, (...) (21 years ago, 24-Jun-03, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Richard and Jojo, The 2x2x3 double convex slopes in red are in the new Air Blazers (#4403) set.

Hello! (...) Ah! Thanks for the hint! This set indeed seem to be full of useful parts. Lots of red top-rounded windows (though without panes I'm affraid). Even better: 2 studs wide red 75° slopes that you can't have too much of. BTW, red 75° corner (...) (21 years ago, 24-Jun-03, to lugnet.market.theory)
