My love affair with the 3x12 wedge slope continues:
Argent
Supra
This came out a bit more old-school than I intended. And a lot bigger (it
sort of strains the boundaries of whooshability!). It was originally going to
be an all-silver spaceship like a Naboo starship, but I changed my mind - and
conserved the lions’ share of the silver elements for another spaceship.
The landing gear is a bit fugly, but it is sturdy and extremely compact...
so I left it as-is.

Excellent Paul!
I can’t wait to see what you do with the silver. Usually I’d prefer that they
had used stickers rather than printing on bricks, but I don’t mind the printing
so much on this; it helps to break up the lime. I like how the metallic decal
area ties in with the metallic technic fairings. I don’t have any of those 3 x
12s in lime, so I’m not sure about the other colours, but maybe some green and
earthy colours would tie in with the accents on those wedges. But, hey,
whatever; it’s a great MOC. I especially like the ‘radial’ work using wedge
plates on the front of the outer engines.
Way to raise the bar.
Peace and lime,
Professor Whateverly
