(...) Haha, that's awesome, glad to see I've made another convert. Yes, half the fun of Homeworld is just watching. The 60Megs of screencaps on my hd attest to that. :p (...) At first the textures will be only one color scheme, however engine color (...) (20 years ago, 21-Apr-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) Do you mean the gray spaceliner that had one of the sides crushed? haha. If so, that one is on a post here somewhere. But there was also some other micro moonbases that I didn't work on (and I think one got dropped rather nastily too) Jeff (20 years ago, 21-Apr-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) After having seen some of your screenshots, I went out and bought Homeworld (yes, for like $3 plus S&H from an Amazon merchant). The Lego stuff is pretty cool, and I'll probably try that out when you are done... but I bought the game just (...) (20 years ago, 21-Apr-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) Thanks! (...) Yes, the mod will be free to download. It's still some ways from being complete or even playable, but I'd say by the end of the year, maybe the end of the summer it should be done. However, the ship models (untextured) are almost (...)

(...) This is looking really cool. I'm assuming you're going to release this when you're done. Freeware? If so, I'll have to buy a copy of Homeworld when you're done. Jeff (20 years ago, 20-Apr-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

Captain Blackhole, the meanest pirate ever to ply the seven spaceways, has a new home. Notable is that, at the time it was built, it had at least one of every computer listed as the .space computer of the month in it. See if you can spot them all :) (...)

Sweet Stuff Jeff!! This ain't all of it either! So What happened to the "damaged" one from our SEALUG guest that day? Or have I missed your post on that one? Nice work! (20 years ago, 21-Apr-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

Greetings, mechers!* I would like to present my latest creation: the KOP (Keeper Of the Peace) Trooper. It's not my first mech or mecha, but it's the first one I actually came away from feeling really pleased about. Usually I'm a castle-builder, but (...)

(...) Yeah, I would have to agree on the color criticism...I wish I had more pieces of either black or white (and conversely, I wish Lego built certain pieces in certain colors...but I won't go into that). The next ship will hopefully be a whole (...) (20 years ago, 20-Apr-05, to lugnet.space)

Overall very nice, but I think the engines need some work to live up to the rest of the ship. Other people mentioned the landing gear and I have to agree. It'd suck for that to fall over and break : ) -JSM (...) (20 years ago, 19-Apr-05, to lugnet.space)

I love the shape. I think the engine needs more detail though. I'm not sure if I like the color scheme, It almost needs to be all black (...) (20 years ago, 19-Apr-05, to lugnet.space)

Um, I do not know where to start... I am stunned. This is a beautiful piece of work. What I like the most is that you maintain a Lego block like shape without allowing it to detract from the smoothness of the design in any way. And the interior (...) (20 years ago, 19-Apr-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

Overall I think it is a very nice MOC. I love the passenger windows and the overhead baggage compartments and all the other little details. After some thought though I do have some reservation with respect to the landing gear and the cockpit. The (...) (20 years ago, 19-Apr-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

Very well executed MOCs! The sleek and sturdy looks on both "omnicron" fighters just cannot be disliked. Anyway, keep building! -Josh (20 years ago, 19-Apr-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

Jeff, I find this moc satisfying in a way that only Charles Bronson films can. It seems more like a pleasure yacht than a space liner, but it is cool nonetheless. The placement of the windows, the stripped down greebles (damn I hate that word) and (...) (20 years ago, 19-Apr-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)
