Copletely agree, till the end. I always like the "logo look" ogf the models, and
like imagining very much how soft this curves are indeed, of this studs and
corners...:-) (to see what I mean, look at my older models at LeoCAD Model
Gallery page, especially look at the ship hulls, and aircraft fuselages/wings)
By the way, starwars sets are the ones that I dreaming to see, from structural
point of view. They are much more "lego" then what I had believed that they
would be some sort of SW Jr. rubbish. (I fall in love with the Y-wing with the
first look..:-)
