If I'm able to make the space green enough to be seen from the outside, the clear windows will make more sense. Chris (...) (23 years ago, 26-Jun-01, to lugnet.build.arch, lugnet.town)

Very Nice! I'm glad to see more folks building town stuff! I really like the white with the trans-blue windows. It can be tricky mixing trans-blue with the clear, but I think you pulled it off nicely! The diamond window is a nice touch. Amy Hughes (...)

Brilliant! I dont comment on many MOCs, but this one deserves it. I love the diamond window, and I think the overall structure is very bold. The building looks to me like a building that might have REALLY been built. Excellent. -Dave Amos (URL) (23 years ago, 25-Jun-01, to lugnet.build.arch, lugnet.town)

Jeff, I too am sad to hear this news. Your pumpers got me started with 6-wide vehicles, and I made a 6-wide city bus after that. Since I had no 6-wide winshields (before Soccer Bus) I used a 4-wide and a 2x1x2 thin wall, which gives it character. I (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jun-01, to lugnet.town)
