| | | | | (...) That's cool, nice smooth lines. I like how the landing gear when retracted is completely out of the way. That's one thing I completely stink at, is landing gear. (2 URLs) Only nitpick would be to get rid of the orange. --(URL) SteveR> (20 years ago, 19-Mar-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| | | | | | Thanks Steve, (...) Keep it smooth! (...) I'll try to remove the orange, see if it looks better. But I like these small color drops, I think it's more eye-catching. JP. (20 years ago, 19-Mar-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| | | | | (...) I like it. Looks like a cool hover racer or luxo-sports car. Kinda looks like muscle car-ish and ferrari-ish at the same time. I like the schleim building and the use of the arched window pieces. Front end looks a bit flat though, but that (...) (20 years ago, 19-Mar-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| | | | | | | Thanks Douglas! I think most of the parts used in this one come from the Air Balzers set : the archer windows, but also the canopy and the 2x6x1 red slopes. "schleim building"??? I saw that schleim word before, without understanding it. Any meaning? (...) (20 years ago, 19-Mar-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
