Outstanding!! (When will it be released for sale...? ;-)
Definitely spotlighted!!
Minor concern: will there be any blue 1x1 sloping tiles left to buy on
Bricklink? LOL.
Greetings, Erik (long time lurker who has been viewing your MOCs for years now
;-)

Superb as always! Id have preferred longer landing gear struts, but Ive seen
some aircraft with landing gear just like your model. I absolutely loved your
solution to the landing gear doors and the animation of the landing gear deploy
is way cool.
I think the vehicle has the feel of something out of Japanese animation while
still retaining that Classic Space feel.

Speaking of landing gear, the A-37 Dragonfly has always impressed me with how
low to the ground it is:
Certainly shows that Brams ship is right on course for being like the Tweet
in that respect!
Of course, his MOC is better detailed than the A-37 :-)

Bram,
as always, only one word to describe your MOCs.. AWESOME. I will be looking
carefully at your 1/2 slope usage for some aviation-related MOCs that will be
going into a project Ive been working on for a while. Id like to know if
youre working on a spaceport to house this and your Q-35 liner, too!

Wow, another awesome MOC Bram, the animated gif showing the landing retracting
explained a lot.
Thanks,

Although pretty, longer landing gear requires either fancier (usually weaker)
joints or bigger doors. But Im glad people like the landing gear clips!

I was heavily inspired by some photos I found of the Minerva from the anime
Crusher Joe (even though I didnt know thats what I was looking at), along with
Classic Space, modern jumbo-jets, and a bit of space shuttle.

I took the Q-35 apart years ago. Besides that, my collection isnt big enough
to build a spaceport that would do ships this scale justice. --Bram

I just looked at the Classic Space link and found a picture from an AN-225.
Your landing gear is very close to what that aircraft has, and its a *big*
plane! My brother works for a general contractor that does work at power plants
and he sent me some pictures of the AN-225 unloading some huge power plant
parts.
Your creation is a similarly impressive scale. It looks like it would be much
bigger than the US space shuttle.
