(...) Thanks Kenn! At first when building this MOC I was only using white and greys. Later I tryed to throw in some color bits. I tryed mixing some yellow and dark red on the hull, but I didn't like it. The easy way to do it was to separate these (...) (21 years ago, 10-Mar-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)
