Hello .spacers!
I have been lurking in .space for almost two years now. I’ve never properly
introduced myself.
Hi this is me:
My name is Mark Mueller
I am a 32-year-old AFOL
I live in Holly, Michigan
I came out of my dark ages two years ago after a short 15 year break.
This is my MOC:
I introduce Captain John and his faithful ship the StarBrewer 1
(Sorry if the pics are a little blurry. Still getting used to it.)
This is my first MOC in about 17 years and I started it about a year ago. It
has been dropped and rebuilt twice, once by my son and once by my neighbor’s
kid. I finally got around to photographing it and was kinda bummed when the
pics came back fuzzy.
So… let me know what you think. Also if anyone can give me some tips on
building and/or photography, I would be eternally indebted.
-Captain John “aka Mark Mueller”
Founder and Chairman of StarBrew Brewing Co.

| Welcome, Mark. The Starbrewer 1 is fantastic. The shape and details really come together well. The "playability" of it really appeals to me. And how can you go wrong with an ship that brings beer! Hope to see more from you in the future. (2 URLs) (21 years ago, 21-Nov-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
