(...) Thanks for the feedback, Lenny. I guess with anything, even lego, when you trully have a passion for something it can be a let down when people don't share your enthusiasm. I think especially with biology, I get this wonderous appreciation for (...) (21 years ago, 11-Sep-03, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

(...) Thanks Adrian. The SeaMonkeys totally play into the tale, and they'll probably be sneaked into everything I build now. They were created as a way to blend biology with lego. Felix (21 years ago, 11-Sep-03, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

I was suprised by that HP piece; its got hinges on both sides so you can put on a double door. I think I got it from Snape's (...) (21 years ago, 11-Sep-03, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

Very innovative design. I also like the use of the dragon arms on the dock. Is there going to be a Midnight MOCkery contest this Halloween? If so this would be a great entry. Bruce (21 years ago, 11-Sep-03, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

Lenny, these are great mocs and all...but where is the brothel? I notice you ignored my suggestion in .castle. A winery? I think you dropped the ball on that one. A winery should be out with the grape fields. By the way, the lil' armory was my (...) (21 years ago, 12-Sep-03, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

Hi Lenny, These are wonderful. Great details like the bunk bed, easel, stiring the wine, the skinny beds,etc. I also think the winery opens in a unique way. Great job! Ben (21 years ago, 12-Sep-03, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

Felix, this is great as it is, but with a little re-tooling this could be an awesome post-holocaust moc. It smacks of Thundarr the Barbarian, and specifically the wizard Gemini's tower. Dig the time/gate aparatus, and the dino head over the (...) (21 years ago, 12-Sep-03, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

(...) I love Thandarr the Barbarian! Thanks for the compliments. I realized later a dino head on the mantle didn't really fit with a kind and gentle life-loving wizard. Maybe it was some demon he slew. Who knows? Felix (21 years ago, 12-Sep-03, to lugnet.castle, FTX)
