Hello again. :-)
     I'm writing because I've just completed no less than 2 more entries for
the Classic Space Building Contest. These will be my 3rd, 4th, and 5th
entries. Why not 2nd? Simple. The second is a multi-part file in which the
main body is not yet complete. I am re-posting with the web address to all
of my entries. The entries pictured are as follows...

"Don't just 'play well', play better!"

P.S.: To those who are counting, Classic space mini-figures only accounted
for 5 pieces. Those pieces are: legs & hips (#1), torso & arms (#2), head
(#3), helmet (#4), and airtanks (#5). Figure set-ups after 1994 or 1995 are
the ones with the head practically glued onto the torso & arms piece.
P.P.S.: LEGO Medium is my way of noting whether it was built in a program
(LDraw/LEdit, MLCAD, etc.), in Real Life, or however.

Entry #4 is finally finished. Unlike the rest, #4 does not use a clear visor as a complement for LDraw's New styled helmets. Entry #1 is my favorite, but #3 and #4 are most likely to go the distance. #2 won't be finished by the deadline. James (...) (23 years ago, 1-Dec-00, to lugnet.build.contests, lugnet.space)
