(URL) The forces of the galactic inquisition are spreading into new sectors of the galaxy. Repent, lest ye be judged. First to be revealed is the Sword of Michael, an assault barge. The SoM supports a compliment of 11 Seraphim assault troopers. So, (...) (20 years ago, 9-Aug-04, to lugnet.space, FTX) !

(...) That is way cool.It has a very Warhammer 40k feel to it. I dig the huge decorative angel thingy on the front, and the way the wings continue along the sides of the ship. I think it could use a few more guns to break up the large flat areas, (...) (20 years ago, 9-Aug-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

Daniel, this is awesome, way awesome... It's so clean and perfect, as if you planned every last detail before you placed it. My favourite things are the space marines, the bridge, and the front "figure". I honestly prefer creations like this to some (...) (20 years ago, 9-Aug-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) Good gothic! You have a great selection of W40K themes in there. Details on the ship are excelent. As is the high interior, 5 stars for that alone. Troops all look well thought out too. DaveG (20 years ago, 9-Aug-04, to lugnet.space)

Good (God?) ship you have here Daniel! Nice detail for the "alpha" on one side, "omega" on the opposite. Where everything begins and finishes.... a little dark / gothic as you mention, but very good idea for a new .space faction. As other people (...) (20 years ago, 9-Aug-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

It probably won't shock you to hear that I really dig this moc, and the theme behind it. I'm not that familiar with 40k, but the first thing that came to mind was Dune for some reason. I'm on the bandwagon as far as the angel-wings go, although I (...) (20 years ago, 9-Aug-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

It has a turret gun on the bottom, the story there is that I used the hardpoint to attach the stand, then took all the pics, and realized I had forgotten to make a new spot to attach the (...)

Awesome Daniel! The wings are so beautifully Art Deco to me. To enhance the angel I would suggest a strong upward diagonal from her feet to perhaps an outstretched hand/fist position, so it looks more like she's leaping/flying unstoppably forward (...) (20 years ago, 10-Aug-04, to lugnet.space)

Though it would require a little sculpting (and some minor snot), it might be worth trying to build the angel with plates placed vertically (studs facing forward). That would give a more nuanced form. (20 years ago, 10-Aug-04, to lugnet.space)

Well wow. Daniel, you've created yourself a fine piece of ship right there. The backswept angel wings are awesome, as is the layout of the whole ship.
