| I have a tendency to let the models I build accumulate, until I reach the point where I can't bear to see all the pieces that are unavailable. Then I tear apart practiaclly everything, except a few of my particular favorites... of course I'll even (...) (24 years ago, 29-Mar-01, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.space, lugnet.build)
