(URL) This thing is just awesomely amazing. Either that or is totally tubular. Or perhaps super-cool. Ether way, the trans-dk-blue on red looks striking, and it is offset well by the light grey undertones of the greeblies on the bottom. You hear-by (...)

Hi Kevin, Very nice tug you have here. And I spent some time having a look at your BS folder, wow, I am impressed! I really like the "Miasaki" feel in your work. Keep on building them like this! JP. (21 years ago, 10-May-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
