Hi all, Visit Dundee's for the best in all your alcoholic needs. Even the youngsters are invited; you don't have to be 21 to get into this place. Thank goodness for the lack of age restrictions in the Burfurgle sector. Remember, if you show your (...) (22 years ago, 27-Jun-02, to lugnet.space) !

That's a blast, Chris!! Well done! There are not enough 'bases' done in .space, and this gives an offbeat approach that while being hilarious, incorporates a lot of ingenious design bits IMO. The outside of the place looks just as I would have (...) (22 years ago, 27-Jun-02, to lugnet.space)

(...) Thanks Gil! (...) Yeah, I was thinking "what can I do that's original enough to be original", and a building came to mind. Then I put the spin on it, and got the bar. (...) Great - that was just the look I was going for. (...) Thanks again! (...) (22 years ago, 27-Jun-02, to lugnet.space)

Thanks Tim. Not sure if you'd find Norm and Cliff here... I've also found it difficult to do a good base, mainly because I think on a large scale. I'm trying my hand at different designs for small outposts and the like; they are within my reach as (...) (22 years ago, 27-Jun-02, to lugnet.space)
