more from tan to green by the riverside... BUT... I suppose I COULD try • using
the heiroglyphic 1x2x5 and 1x6x5's turned over to hide the writing....
hmm..... maybe I'll play around with that (although I do like the roughness
of showing studs on the top of the roofs... I'll have to test it out...)

BTW, with all the talk about removing printing from bricks - why not
use "brasso" and take off the heiroglyphic print? I haven't experinmented • with
it (yet) but many people said it worked for them...
I might try it too after I get my collection back...

Well... I have a tendancy of not disfiguring my Lego no matter how hideous it
may be-- I have no idea why... must be a "purity of Lego" complex... Plus one
of my other projects that I want to do someday is have a huge Egyptian
temple/tomb... and the heiroglyphic pieces are key for that! The only piece
I've actually found myself considering for brasso are those ugly, ugly, ugly
UFO 1/4 discs... I HATE those pieces... they'd ALMOST be BARELY useful... but
no.... "Let's put ugly designs on them that CAN'T be used for ANYTHING else
thanks to the wonderful UFO logo!" At least the MF will have semi-usable
printing! (sorry for ranting... I just hate that piece... can you tell? And
I've got about 30 of 'em, just sitting there USELESS! GAH! But if I ever DO
decide to brasso them, I have just about enough to do the rebel power
generator for Hoth.... someday... someday...)

LOL! You're not the only one. But and if you don't want them, many people will
be glad to take them off your hands and remove the print themselves...
