As of Brickfest last year, I was only 14, but I would be 16 by this year's BF. Unfortunately, because the date was moved forward, it's now the weekend before school starts, and since my mom has to get all the teachers at my school ready to go (...) (21 years ago, 9-Apr-03, to lugnet.space)

Hi there, Geordan, First up you have an excellent design concept on the Boar. I love the area around the cokpit with the intakes and rocket cannisters, ets. The rocket pods are also quite cool. I hate to be picky but I found the body of the thing a (...) (21 years ago, 9-Apr-03, to lugnet.space)
