Heyhey!
JHK’s Firebird and Jamie Neufeld’s Dragon inspired me. Presenting the Chimera:
Some notes:
-Jamie, that cockpit config is absolutely amazing. I tweaked it a bit. :-)
-I also wanted to use at least one Znap piece in this moc.
-Landing gear!
-Aaaand finally, the former “orange fleebnorks” are now officially cataloged as
“Flurgids”. It is written, let it be so.
Enjoy!

| (...) Yet another Dragon inspiration (my Dragonfly is a descendent as well)! Very nice job Chris. The intakes a la Air Blazers work so well here and marry quite nicely to the crooked cockpit. For some reason, I almost feel the tail section could be (...) (21 years ago, 25-Aug-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) Oh my, very nice. I love the overall shape. Reminds me a lot of the Aliens Dropship... that's a good thing. :) Beautiful use of SNOT, and the control yoke is definitely something I'll be stealing soon. Well done. Love it. -Grand Admiral and (...) (21 years ago, 25-Aug-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) -snip- (...) Firstly, I gotta say this is a really nice MOC. The angled cockpit and air intakes are fabulous, and the small tail adds character to the whole craft. Well done Chris. Secondly, I have a bit of a problem envisioning this as a (...) (21 years ago, 25-Aug-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) Hey- Nice job dude! Landing gear...cool. Canted cockpit...cool. Intakes...cool. The superb visibility from the cockpit would make this craft good for recon and observation, too. In fact, it reminds me a little of the old OV-10's Maybe add some (...) (21 years ago, 25-Aug-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) That's a very nice MOC. I really like the functionality you've packed into this small MOC, the little overdone flurgid container mechanism and the detatchable bot and joystick and all this stuff is really nice. Glad to see I'm actually giving (...) (21 years ago, 25-Aug-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| C-Mad, I dig this moc, it looks like it would be fun to fly, which I guess is the best compliment I could give it. Things I liked: the intakes, the engines (no tires), the recessed kill-bot dispenser, the asymetrical guns on the nose, the tail, the (...) (21 years ago, 26-Aug-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

The air intakes are awesome and I'm all about that claustrophobic cockpit and flight stick!The twin tail design is intriquing as well, perhaps it could be a (...)

| (...) Chris I'm glad I could be some inspiration to such an awesome ship! I saw this on Brickshelf yesterday and was just amazed by it. I still think you and Gil Shaw are the masters of the small Moc's. Nice tweaking on the cockpit. I like how you (...) (21 years ago, 26-Aug-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) As always chris.. this is the picture of simplistic beauty. So complicated, with so many details, all put together in such a way that make me think: "duh.. why couldn't I have done that?" awesome to flurgids, huh? hmm.. i dunno what to think (...)

| (...) Chris, I really like this shape. Every time I attempt it, it ends up abandoned. Now I can steal from you! I really dig the intakes, and especially the detatchable killbot - harkens back to the last days of Classic Space, when a bot was (...) (21 years ago, 27-Aug-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
