|

(URL) sure some here have seen this site before, as it was a Cool Lego Site of the Week about 4 years back, but due to its great utility I decided to repost it. I hope to implement these techniques when I get a digital camera (I have new MOCs to (...) (21 years ago, 24-Sep-04, to lugnet.space)

Hi Starshippers... I am back from my extended absence and am working toward restarting my playing and my sector...I am working on the website stuff now. I have built a few new ships in the same boxy style I have grown accustom to... Richard, I (...) (21 years ago, 24-Sep-04, to lugnet.space)

|
|
(...) Heh, thanks Andrew. You should've come to Brickfest, that mech and an Inquisition fighter were both on display. I built the mech the day before brickfest, and I think it came out remarkably well for one day's effort. I haven't gotten around to (...) (21 years ago, 24-Sep-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

Hi, all. (...) Yes, you're right Dan. Ken said that white flat stuffs are "SCHURZEN" of his battle ship. :-) They connect with brown ladder parts, and protect(hide) central mechanics at middle of body. (...) Yes. And white towers laid at the (...) (21 years ago, 24-Sep-04, to lugnet.space)

I still haven't had the opportunity (or at least managed the time :-P ) to look over this thing in its entirety but I wanted to take this moment to say this is an intriguing and promising theme you have begun.

|

When critiquing I try to do a few things, most importantly provide encouragment, for some people its a big thing to present their new MOC to the world. I try to gauge the level of the builder (which isn't really an age thing) from the tone of their (...)

(...) I reckon you're pretty fair with your critiques, Paul. But you're right, they can be difficult, mainly because one is always unsure how they will be taken. Here's what I reckon: If you want your work critiqued, ask for it, even to the point of (...) (21 years ago, 24-Sep-04, to lugnet.people.teens, lugnet.space, lugnet.build, lugnet.castle, FTX)

(...) Critiquing is tough. I've been giving ad-hoc critiques of almost everything for years and I still haven't got the hang of it... in fact, I often get the feeling that it has worked against my favour. I don't think I'd recommend it. Then again, (...) (21 years ago, 24-Sep-04, to lugnet.people.teens, lugnet.space, lugnet.build, lugnet.castle, FTX)

snip (...) I think this important to note. I think alot of us, or at least myself, get stuck in a "if you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything at all" mentality. I will keep this in mind and try and do more critiquing... says the guy (...) (21 years ago, 24-Sep-04, to lugnet.people.teens, lugnet.space, lugnet.build, lugnet.castle)

(...) Maybe part of it was that .space is simply BIG. Maybe part of it was that I've split energies between models and the Starship game. I don't know. But I just didn't feel the warm reception others seemed to get. Don't get me wrong--I'm not (...) (21 years ago, 24-Sep-04, to lugnet.people.teens, lugnet.space, lugnet.build, lugnet.castle)

I spose it is kinda a large concentration of color unlike the rest of the ship. Glad you liked it otherwise, thanks! -- Kyle (...) (21 years ago, 24-Sep-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
