  Re: London Opium Den
 
Hello! Hey, I like that. Hrm, actually I don't, because I don't like drugs. But its' well built. The futon (? the couch, divan, anyway) looks great, and the chinese topknot is very convincing. It seems like you knew what you were doing here. (In (...) (18 years ago, 28-Oct-06, to lugnet.build.vignette, lugnet.castle, FTX)
 
  Re: London Opium Den
 
(...) Good stuff! The queue and topknot are outstanding. 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 (...)

  Re: Stoneguard Hold
 
Sweeeet! The corner curved towers are what jump out at you, but the inner curved wall with the matching curved building atop is just brilliant. Lots of great details here, with the partially-submerged fin and the trail of blood in the water being my (...) (18 years ago, 27-Oct-06, to lugnet.castle, FTX)
 
  Re: Stoneguard Hold
 
(...) My MOC was much smaller and used the combination of 1x1 rounds with 1x3 bricks to make a curved wall. John, was there a reason you chose the 1x2 bricks over the 1X3? (I would ask at the next VicLUG meeting but I thought others might like to (...) (18 years ago, 27-Oct-06, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

  Re: Stoneguard Hold
 
Awesome work, you really have a fantastic attention to detail and to carefully placing every piece in your MOC. Making stuff look so effortless is anything but and you've done a great job here. Keep up the SNOT! (18 years ago, 26-Oct-06, to lugnet.castle, FTX)
 
  Re: Stoneguard Hold
 
(...) Well done. Your castle has a really great look and feel to it, and your attention to detail is fantastic. I'm not really a fan of the curved walls, but it's nothing you've done. I'm just not a fan of the 1x2 and 1x1 round brick combination, it (...) (18 years ago, 26-Oct-06, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

Absolutely gorgeous! I love the curved tudor piece, towers, layout, and small details. A really well executed MOC! Glad to see the art of castle making is alive and well... God Bless, Nathan Visit my brickshelf gallery: (URL) (pic=link) (18 years ago, 26-Oct-06, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

(...) I vote good! Nicely done, I find the implied action very well done, that is one thing I've always liked about layouts, especially Keith Goldman's. -Jason (18 years ago, 26-Oct-06, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

  Re: Imperial Russian Cossacks
 
Hi, Tim. Interesting way of doing the legs of the horsemen. Is that a half-stud offset? And is that the new 1x1 slope piece with no stud as their hips? If so, without the stud, what's keeping the torsos in place? Nice scene. -Brendan (18 years ago, 18-Oct-06, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.build.vignette, FTX)
