I like its interesting design. What is that 1x2 tile on the back from?
Aquazone?

Looks nice. To me the middle fuselage looks a bit too light / short compared
to the "wings". On the other hand if you make it longer, it might not look
that "clawish" anymore...
And how about adding two 1x3x1-22,5°slopes behind the front weapons so they
merge better with the hull (does that make sense?)
Apart from that - cool model, and nice matching name.

thanks... this is one of my MOCs that I've left together for a long time,
and I'll probably keep it together for awhile longer... it has a fine layer
of dust on it though, I need to clean it... <G>

Yup, Aquazone. I bought three of those 6180 Hydro Search Subs when it was
on sale at Walmart. That's where I got the helmet, the tile, and the tubes
from. The visor's from LOM and the rest are just parts from my collection.

I actually toyed with a longer fuselage but it just didn't look right to me.
I also tried a thicker fuselage but that made it look stubby. I kind of
liked the idea of the light somewhat vulnerable looking fuselage protected
by the large heavily armored wings, so I stuck with it.

I think I can visualize what you're saying and I think that would improve
the look a bit... I'll have to experiment with it. Thanks!
As to the name, that actually took longer to come up with than the model
took to build... <G> I sat down with about five MOCs in front of me and
decided to name each one. After naming the other four my mind was a blank
for this one. Three days of on and off thinking later it popped into my
head as I was trying to fall asleep... :)
