(...) Thanks. I built the truck after you and I discussed the street vendor's a while ago. (...) Yeah, I'd like to add a clothesline on the fire escape too. I don't know how to do the clothes though. Well with 'Dobbys Release' I can do socks. (...) (...) (22 years ago, 16-Oct-02, to lugnet.town)

(...) Hi Brad, thanks! The brown arches protrude by one stud from the rest of the facade. It is quite solid though, there are just enough parts available in the burnt orange color (plates, tiles etc) to make it work. All of the arches are attached (...) (22 years ago, 16-Oct-02, to lugnet.town)

(...) Looks like the brown arches are just projecting over the top of the rust color (it's not orange), so the rust runs behind the brown arch. It looks marvelous though. Adrian (22 years ago, 16-Oct-02, to lugnet.town)

Hey, That looks really great! I really like the details of the roof top seen in "top.jpg." How did you fill in those brown arches with orange? Brad (22 years ago, 15-Oct-02, to lugnet.town)
