  Re: Finally online : Cafe De Unie
 
(...) I like this a lot. It's a great choice to build in Lego and you've pulled it off most admirably. I particularly like the way you've simulated the spiral using studs out tiles (unless my eyes decieve me). My only crits are that it's perhaps a (...)

  Finally online : Cafe De Unie
 
I finally managed to post my last (may/june 2006) MOC online : Cafe De Unie, an architectural masterpiece by JJP Oud, built in 1925 (and rebuilt in 1986) (URL) Jan-Albert van Ree | (URL) (18 years ago, 29-Dec-06, to lugnet.build.arch, lugnet.town) !

It appears to me that droid arms have been getting a lot more use than as just as arms. As a (...) (18 years ago, 29-Dec-06, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.general, lugnet.town, FTX)
