| | Technic MOTM needs a new name.
|
|
Hi! Okay, so here's the deal, Tim Courtney from LDraw.org has asked me to change the name of Technic MOTM into something _not_ Model Of The Month since he feels MOTM is "an important part of LDraw.org's recognition". I _will_ change the name despite (...) (23 years ago, 3-Mar-02, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Interesting... when I look at it all I can see is a pile of bricks :-) I think when you've been doing a model for a long time this perception is inevitable. The photo was indeed intended to be roughly congruent with the one on the Demag (...) (23 years ago, 3-Mar-02, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Thanks! I'd love to say it was entirely deliberate but the photos were really a semi-intentional accident. They were taken in my sister's driveway where the grey chuckies seem to scale well into large boulders, the bushes look uncanilly like (...) (23 years ago, 3-Mar-02, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Let me add my etc. etc. etc. to the chorus of wows. :-) I think what struck me was that you have to look fairly close to tell it's not a model at thumbnail illustration sizes. Even when you go to the Demag site and line up their 3/4 cab (...) (23 years ago, 3-Mar-02, to lugnet.technic)

I have ordered from Lego.com and bought from Wal-Mart (when they were not all opened) and never (...) (23 years ago, 3-Mar-02, to lugnet.technic.bionicle)

(...) That's a lot like saying is there such a thing as too many Lego bricks? Of course not!:) My first reaction to your pho was, quite honestly, "what's with the reference photo here?"...until I read the note on the site saying that was your model. (...) (23 years ago, 3-Mar-02, to lugnet.technic)

Hi Shiri, Thanks for the reply! The problem with the corrugated tubes was finding a way of attaching them to traditional bricks in a seamless way. Usually an axle joiner and pin or similar is required, which works great in the normal technic style (...) (23 years ago, 3-Mar-02, to lugnet.technic)

Hi Jennifer! First off let me say - I've heard about you, but this is the first time I've ever seen one of your creations. Technic isn't the apple of my eye; I'm not crazy about the pure mechanics with no aesthetics. But I love model team and (...) (23 years ago, 3-Mar-02, to lugnet.technic)
