involve not modifying the bricks. After all, that’s what this is all about -
your modelling criteria not being in concordance with ours. Anyone who
feels otherwise should speak up!

I don’t think it’s the communities fault. All I’m saying is if you have
suggestions on improvment, tell me. Don’t just complain.
| |
But you’re no stranger to hypocrisy, obviously - how ironic (especially as I
wasn’t really insulting you). But anyway...
|
I know you weren’t insulting me. I was refering to Arnie’s comments. Also, I’m
not exactly sure where I was being hypocritical, but if you say so.......

For example, when I built the engine bell for the feisar craft, 2 x 2 hinges
wouldn’t fit. Bottom line. No amount of skill could have fixed that
problem.
|
Not even doubling the scale of the craft?... there, I just gave you a
completely reasonable construction/methodology suggestion - sounds like it
would work a treat too! :-)
|
While the thought did occure to me, I’m not able to build to your criteria of
massive capital ships and UCS models. I don’t have the money or the resources.
However, I’m not about to condemn your work, which is really cool by the way,
simply because I personally cannot do the same.

In this respect we’re just going to have to agree to disagree.
|
Oh no, I have too many counter-arguments on standby for that. Is this
off-topic.debate material? I’m trying to be as educational as possible...
|
So far, the only thing you’ve shown me is some made up psuedo-religious dogma
that is supposed to dictate how I can and cannot build lego models. “Some
people won’t be able to build your craft!” you say because the are completely
unable to cut a mere four parts for the feisar and even fewer than that with the
others. If that’s the case, they are either in a coma or they’re too young to
wield a knife.
I am unable to build your models. It’s not due to lack of ability, you’ve
just built them so they would cost way to much for me and indeed many other
people to build. Therefor, your work sucks. That doesn’t sound right does it?
If it will make you feel better (which I doubt), my wipeout models are the
only models that use cut out parts. Not even that, actually. Only 3 of my
wipeout models use them. My others don’t. I really don’t know what else to say
other that if a mere 2 or 3 non-lego parts under the hood of a model is enough
to turn your head 360 degrees and have you screaming away from it in terror,
then I apologize. However that’s not my problem.
