I think the arctic walls were destined for space ship designs! They're
perfect because they give you a nice sloped side, a rounded rectangular
window, and "vent" grooves on the bottom. Yeah, they're light too so it cuts
down on so much weight for a ship that big. The whole ship is minimal in the
sense that I used castle walls, BURPS and large grey baseplates to create a
large ship without that many pieces (well, it has lots of pieces but not as
many as you'd figure for a ship that's over 5 feet long, 2 feet wide and
nearly 2 feet tall (with struts).

Thanks, dude! Actually, the way Brad filtered it it looks like that new
light blue instead of regular LEGO blue. Kind of interesting.

| I think the "powder blue" effect is because we were shooting in sunlight with a fill-in flash. We probably should have tried a few without the flash. Daniel Jassim <danieljassim@hotmail.com> wrote in message news:GAqtv7.8zn@lugnet.com... (...) (24 years ago, 25-Mar-01, to lugnet.space)
