(...) Mmm, three sided goodness. Awesome craft - love the black and dark blue combo. Very organically bulky and hostile looking. And that canopy is perfect. Well done sir. -Chris (21 years ago, 2-Jul-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

great moc! the colors are great and the photos are wonderful. you really got the detail in the black to come out. the three sided good ness is terrific, and now you simply have to build it a big brother with five sides. good use of transbluew? do (...) (21 years ago, 2-Jul-03, to lugnet.space)

(...) Thanks. The A-Wing canopy was as close to triangular as I could get. It seemed fitting enough, and blends quite well with the shape. Building with dark blue as a highlight color's not easy, though, as I only have 4 element types (all slopes) (...) (21 years ago, 2-Jul-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) Unfortunately not as much as I'd hoped. I can still swoosh it, but the dark blue panels have a tendency to fall off if I'm not careful. The price one pays for SNOTwork, it seems. Thanks Adrian (URL) (21 years ago, 2-Jul-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) Yeah, I'd picked up a few Slave 1's when I built the (URL) Blood Moon>, so the pieces were just sort of laying around. Once I realized that dark blue would make a nifty trim color, it just sort of fell into place. My driving force in this (...) (21 years ago, 2-Jul-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) Great shape! The black and dark blue works really well together. The only suggestions I might have is to add guns to the dorsal like you have on the sides, completing the symmetry. The other is maybe to fill the inside in a bit—maybe with some (...) (21 years ago, 2-Jul-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) It is indeed a rather vacant cavity inside, but due to the weirdness of the shape of the body, filling it up would be very difficult indeed. I'm not really happy with the fact that you can see through it, but I don't think there's much else I (...) (21 years ago, 2-Jul-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) Yowza this lil bugger is neat. Top notch SNOT work Adrian. I was going to add that someone here made good use of those Ogel sets but I see you commented on that. NOW you need to implement the trans-red 3x6 plates w/o corners into some wicked (...) (21 years ago, 2-Jul-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

I've got a boatload of those manta sets kicking around too for that project that never seems to start. :( It's amazing that you've thrown in FIVE non X/Y axis angles in this baby, all to a great effect. Can I ask how you (...) (21 years ago, 3-Jul-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
