(...) -snip- (...) Interesting design and building terminology/philosophy to point out. I try to use what I have, and I do challenge myself to use parts that have been laying around too, I know what you mean. -eric (18 years ago, 9-Nov-06, to lugnet.town)

(...) Thank you, Eric. (...) I don't buy very many sets any more, but when I do and I end up with 'junk' (parts I don't normally use) I try to challenge myself to put them to use. Sometimes the results look 'forced' and other times I am happy with (...) (18 years ago, 9-Nov-06, to lugnet.town)

Jonathan, these buildings are fantastic! When I think about building mech bays, I always think how much more advanced the "Town" builders are when it comes to structure. I look up to folks like you when I build and I think to myself, "the more I (...) (18 years ago, 9-Nov-06, to lugnet.town)

(...) Ah, yes. Understood. (...) Thanks and feel free to grab any idea you like! Very few of my buildings start from the bottom either. Street level is usually the last thing I build. Sometimes I build from the 2nd level up (and then back down to (...) (18 years ago, 9-Nov-06, to lugnet.town, FTX)

(...) Yeah, down the road I could try that one out for sure, to display on (URL) this>. Problem is that these sections are too large (and too uncompleted;-) for us to take on the road.

(...) Thanks, very much! These are two of my favorite colors as well. I built the first version of the dark red building about 4 years ago in red. Just waiting for the opportunity to do it in dark red. With the dark orange, I have taken 3 of my (...) (18 years ago, 9-Nov-06, to lugnet.town, FTX)

Absolutely beautiful! When I looked at the first thumbnail I thought that it was a reference picture of a real street. I love the colour choice (that orange is my faviourite lego colour and the dark red and sand green suit each other so well). (...) (18 years ago, 8-Nov-06, to lugnet.town, FTX)

(...) Thanks, Jeramy. Yep, when I built with the reddish brown, I went into my part bin and tried to build only with what I had in there (which wasn't a huge assortment of parts). I did have a good number of Maersk ships and really wanted to use (...) (18 years ago, 8-Nov-06, to lugnet.town)

(...) Thanks, Tim. I am really pleased with the dark orange building. It was the most difficult building I have made with the limits in parts and getting the 3 wide windows and everything lined up the way I like. Also, I am happy I went "out of NYC" (...) (18 years ago, 8-Nov-06, to lugnet.town)
