(...) It definitely works from what I can seen in the photo. Use of only black, white and neon trim seems to dull down the blue quite nicely. A dash of yellow or even red would probably ruin the effect. (20 years ago, 27-Jul-04, to lugnet.town, lugnet.color, FTX)

I made it from memory, and it probably could use a bit more detail. I am thinking about bringing it (...) (20 years ago, 26-Jul-04, to lugnet.town, FTX)

Good day all, (URL) Just a quick post to share some pictures of my latest MOC, (URL) Bricton's Paramount Theatre.> This theatre is based on the one I frequented as a child and teen.
