Hi Todd, Kevin has included a subtle advertisement just under his MOC announcement. In my opinion, its OK because (1) the advertising accompanies announcement an announcement of a really cool MOC and (2) a lot of people reading the Town group would (...) (22 years ago, 20-Jun-02, to lugnet.town)

(...) What a fantastic stadium! I really like the design, and am particularly fascinated with the circular shape of the facility. How do you "round out" the corners? I ask because I find it very hard to create anything curved or round out of Lego (...) (22 years ago, 20-Jun-02, to lugnet.town)

Kevin, I love the stadium, it's extreemly cool. I like the pic with the "oval track" in the middle. I would like to see some TV cameras though, even if it's like a soccer feild a modern stadim has to be dotted with TV cameras. How else are you gonna (...) (22 years ago, 20-Jun-02, to lugnet.town)

Kevin, I love the modularity of this model. You could change the shape to one that is long and narrow just by moving two straight sections from the ends to the sides. Although, that would make an awfully narrow playing field but it's just something (...) (22 years ago, 21-Jun-02, to lugnet.town)

Super structure Kevin, any chance of interior pics? What inspires me most about your buildings is how they arn't facades or hollow boxes, they are meant for the use of a minifig and have so much detail tucked away here and there =)) So are you (...) (22 years ago, 21-Jun-02, to lugnet.town)
