Jonathan,
Wow, thanks for the high praise. A medium colored brick between Sand Red and Red
would have been nice for this MOC but I guess we'll just have to make do with
those colors for now. I'll definately take some more detailed pics of South Hall
the next time I have it on display but you may want to check out the SCLTC's
recent gallery and website for more pics.
Thanks again for comments.
