That’s heavy, man!
This picture just sums it up for me. The transgreen plates at an angle, the
tight solid form, the little spindly legs... but, most of all the rake; it
just says ‘vroom!’ Those landing gear are awesome. I think it’s proof of how
limitations often lead to the best work.

Thanks- and I’ll have to remember that sitting level is overrated. And as for
limitations... all too true. Drat that windshield!
(I still haven’t built the support vehicle, but after alluding to this ship
multiple times I felt that I had to post what I was talking about.)

Oh, and as for the underwater version, perhaps the nose could be more
aerodynamic... (um, aquadynamic?)... without too much redesign...

The nose section sits on a studs-forward 4x6 plate. I could quite easily swap
something else in there. The question is what to swap in? I don’t want it to
be too much like the tail... perhaps some equipment up there instead.
