Sounds cool. Of course, the 5-foot high wall thing is a bit off, but for the sake of simplicity we can say that 8x8x5 studs equals ton. Sounds like a cool idea! I wonder if the actual measurements taken in the game RPG Traveller is true, though. (...) (22 years ago, 29-Dec-02, to lugnet.space)

That's a cool ship. I dunno about it's storyline, but just looking at it its a cool ship, with nice angles and colors. I think you did it pretty well. I don't particullarly like modifying parts, but here it's sort of 'O.K.' Good job, very cool! -JHK (...) (22 years ago, 29-Dec-02, to lugnet.space)
