I don’t know about you, but that’s not enough to get me going. Execution is important, but I prefer form and concept. That’s why this is one of my favourite ships, even though it didn’t recieve much attention:

I just found it visually and conceptually really inspiring. Building a similar ship is definitely in my plans.

That ship has a very unique shape. I am interested to see what you do with it.

   Thanks Mike. I look forward to seeing the ships you make when you pull out your legos and start building again...


Unfortunately it may still be a bit before I get anything up here. I have a seven week old son at home. Work, sleep and the baby take up most of my time. I am really looking forward to the day I can introduce him to legos. :)
