BIG, Klunky, very imposing. Did I miss anything, Mark? Oh, yeah...fins remind me of an early Mladen creation. Not sure how I feel about the colorscheme...I'm not fond of yellow non-construction mechs in general, so I'll admit to my bias there. I (...) (21 years ago, 18-Apr-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)

  Re: Omicron Civilian Space Liner
 
Simply beautiful. Saw it on Brickshelf, and just had to comment. It's very understated; the simple gray belies all that snotwork.
