(...) First of all, being a Christian, I do object to the design. However, as a critique of the model, the structure is not very interesting. Your method of building requires virtually no SNOT at all. Most of it is in standard studs up configuration (...) (20 years ago, 2-Oct-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

We have so many factions that they would be difficult to tell them apart if everyone used the same style. (When are we going to see the (...) (20 years ago, 2-Oct-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

The initial idea when I built the Rapier was to have a basically cross-shaped fighter, but there's more to it than that. A cathedral is cross shaped, but it's not (...)

It has studs forward, studs right, studs left and studs aft. The landing gear when extended is studs (...) (20 years ago, 3-Oct-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
