  Re: Ask and thou shalt receive: Ben's minipod
 
(...) Yeah, that was by far the toughest thing to get on this construction. I swear I stared at those two light saber blades for what seemed like an eternity (okay, maybe half an hour) until I came up with that solution. Originally it was going to (...)

  Re: Ask and thou shalt receive: Ben's minipod
 
Adrian, Thanks for the kind words, and for the reference on your site. Excellent work on the pod! I had actually spent a bit of time thinking about how to do that particular pod, but I wasn't coming up with any ideas for the energy couplings. Keep (...)

  Re: System Defense Boat "Sulu"
 
This is a really nice capital ship. It's got good roots in modern-day, seagoing warships, and reminds me of animesque extrapolations on what large spacecraft of tomorrow might look like (think Battletech). Awesome. The larger side missles that (...) (22 years ago, 10-Jan-03, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: Ask and thou shalt receive: Ben's minipod
 
(...) It may be that, the lighting, and also the dark gray, perhaps. So used to seeing red with light gray in a lot of SW sets, maybe the darkness of the dark gray is "bleeding" off onto the red to my eye. (...) Might get pictures of it, but one in (...)

(...) Wow, that's huge! It's great looking too, thanks! George (22 years ago, 10-Jan-03, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: System Defense Boat "Sulu"
 
(...) I also liked the way the R2D2 heads snuck into the design. Great interior shots. I like it when such a big spaceship has interior detail. A bit less exterior detail than I like, but still very good. The detail thats there appears to be (...) (22 years ago, 10-Jan-03, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: Ask and thou shalt receive: Ben's minipod
 
(...) They're not dark red, just regular red. The pod is almost entirely red and dark gray. Must be the lighting that's confusing you. (...) I don't think it works that way. Maybe if you suggested someone build you a miniscale AT-TE, you might get (...) (22 years ago, 10-Jan-03, to lugnet.starwars)

  Re: System Defense Boat "Sulu"
 
(...) Nice work! That is a pretty big ship. I like how you formed the engines. The control center is keen as well. Do the escape hatches actually detach? They look neat nonetheless. Overall, great work, I look forward to your next big ship. -Jason (...) (22 years ago, 10-Jan-03, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.space)
 
  Re: MOC: Y-Wing Starfighter
 
(...) <nitpick> Heyyy, I thought the main thing that links all UCS is the lack of minifigs. #;-}> </nitpick> (...) Sand blue is very nice. In fact, looking at the sand blue used for the TIE Advanced and TIE Bomber in the mini packs, I'm wondering (...) (22 years ago, 10-Jan-03, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: MOC: Y-Wing Starfighter
 
Thanks for the comments, guys. Jason- I thought the use of battle droid arms was a pretty nifty feature myself, but unfortunately I forgot about it by the time I got around to posting it. Hence the lack of flaunting ;). Bruce- I was using blue (...) (22 years ago, 10-Jan-03, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: Interview and K-Wing

  Re: Ask and thou shalt receive: Ben's minipod
 
(...) I've gotten quite a lot of dkred pieces from various SW sets, but none of those yet, I don't think. Wait, did the Republic Gunship have them? .. nevermind, if that's it. I suggested a Chrysler Building on build.arch, and it was built. And now (...) (22 years ago, 10-Jan-03, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Ask and thou shalt receive: Ben's minipod
 
I couldn't resist the urge to build something tiny (thanks for the inspiration, Joel and Greg). Here's Ben Quadrinaros' 4 engine pod in mini form. Enjoy! (URL) (22 years ago, 10-Jan-03, to lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.starwars) ! 
 
  Re: New Hailfire droid
 
(...) And if you look at it, there are channels in the rim that keep the wheel rolling nice and smooth. Mammoth turntables, or mech joints... Mark (22 years ago, 9-Jan-03, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: MINI Gasgano's Pod - MOC
 
(...) Neither of those pods is the best one, though. The guy (Quadrinaros or somesuch) with four engines has the best pod. I'd love to see a mini of that. mmm. -Greg "Fox" Cook (22 years ago, 9-Jan-03, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: MINI Gasgano's Pod - MOC
 
(...) Aldar Beedo and Mawhonic, I think. Lovely design there. I notice that most people who've done micro-fig scale in the past though have made theirs even smaller than these official ones. Jason J Railton (22 years ago, 9-Jan-03, to lugnet.starwars)

  Re: It's perfect!
 
(...) Okay, so I'm wrong about animal skeletons. The equivalent for mammals then is for you to get down on all fours and walk on knuckles and tiptoes, with your knees facing forward and your elbows facing backward. Nevertheless, the AT-AT doesn't (...) (22 years ago, 9-Jan-03, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build.mecha)
