--SNIP-- (...) Thanks for your comments Tony. Interestingly (although probably unsurprisingly) you've pointed out the two things I felt were weakest: the gun and the side engines. Unfortantely I couldn't think of any better way to do either so (...) (19 years ago, 9-Jan-06, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) The side intakes are really neat. Definitely keep that! More detail on the upper intakes would be nice. I like the look of the drooping nose, but it does hang awfully low. It doesn't look like the gun could shoot any where near level. The gun (...) (19 years ago, 9-Jan-06, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) I love the front half. The shape and color scheme work really well up there. The rear half seems to be really busy, with the different-colored cargo containers combined with the yellow/black striping. That's realistic, though. I love the (...) (19 years ago, 9-Jan-06, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) Wow, that's gorgeous. I see that it has a compressor... perhaps someone can make an air-powered cannon that shoots Technic axles. Now that's a hazard! (...) Stop that, you! (2 URLs) Tony Hafner (URL) www.hafhead.com> (19 years ago, 9-Jan-06, to lugnet.space, FTX)

I was fortunate to be able to hit the Train layout at all. The Technic cannon is a very simple (...) (19 years ago, 9-Jan-06, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) Glad you like it! I'm kinda hoping to have a couple of them duking it out at the next NWBrickCon, but we'll see how that goes. Mindstorms has some distinct advantages- particularly the smaller components. I don't have a lot of practice with (...) (19 years ago, 9-Jan-06, to lugnet.space)
