Matt, thanks a ton for the kind words. In the case of the Falcon, I really appreciate it, as it's been a long winding road for that ship (and it's still on that road, as there's always something to be revamped). Believe it or not the ship is 18 (...) (22 years ago, 5-Sep-02, to lugnet.starwars)

Great stuff, Brian! Your Millenium Falcon is the best out there, in my opinion. The overall shape and proportion are perfect! How long did it take you to get that just right? I've been toying with the idea of doing a Falcon, but I wouldn't know (...) (22 years ago, 5-Sep-02, to lugnet.starwars)

Hi all, Just wanted to share some infinitely more viewable photos of my SW customs. I am a bit behind when it comes to technology, so I learned way after the fact how much cropping and light adjusting can improve photos. I apologize for having (...) (22 years ago, 5-Sep-02, to lugnet.starwars)

Thanks Josh. It's harder to do a character with such little screen time and not much more in the way of photos, but I did what I could. I'm sure the abdomen design can be used for something else... we'll see. Also, thanks for the history lesson ;) (...) (22 years ago, 4-Sep-02, to lugnet.starwars)

Looks excellent Jonathan....you really kept true to the original and that's not an easy task from the looks of the whale-head design of the bow. It captures the sense of a 'disposal' ship as well....very cool. Would go so well with a moonbase. (...) (22 years ago, 3-Sep-02, to lugnet.space, lugnet.starwars)
