I’m Rick James, b*%#h. What did the five fingers say to the face? *slap!*

The canard was inspired by the one on the Wright Flyer. When I was building
this I actually made sure the cockpits were placed in just the right spot so
they could see through the wings fine. And the red supports up front don’t
really block the view either. And also, it looks cool.

Werd.

I dunno man. Maybe it’s like my H-wing. Working together the 2 pilots can
form a good picture of the world around them like a left and right eye. Of
course these pilots aren’t Jedi...they just rawk.
|
Better yet, just say it was an experimental airplane with telepathic mutant
pilots.

And Kenworth wasn’t drunk *but* there was a fairly good supply of cheap beer
in *my* fridge.

I knew it!

Ok now you’re just talkin’ crazy. How can minifigs even shoot at each other?
They don’t even have fingers!
Obviously you did not think of this, and therefore acted like an idiot, and
therefore I humiliate you.[1]

LOL!

I’m definitely thinking this is revenge for when I picked apart the
Dragonstar. All’s fair though.
|
Revenge? Me?! (quickly hides tattered picture of Jon on dartboard) Whatchya
talkin’ about, buddy? I would never uh, ummm... Me???

Thanks for the smack and the complements. Good times.

Sorry again if I picked it apart too much. You really did an excellent job of
building and presentation. Maybe my humor detector sucks because when I first
saw it I couldn’t tell if you deliberately made this design ambigious and were
spoofing Kenworth switching from making semi-trucks to warplanes (even calling
it the Berserker). I thought it was a gag but I guess the joke is on me.
But the “smack” is strictly about the realism, not Lego building skillz. Yeah, I
know the Crimson Skies shizzle is supposed to be fictional anyway but the idea
is to take artistic design liberties within the technological limitations of the
WWII era. That said, I just think this design is too odd and impractical and is
technologically inferior compared to most of the other CS MOC’s presented thus
far. So I shared my observations because I know how you value constructive
criticism.
