Hi all,

As promised, here she is, the Trifecta:

http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=24637

The Trifecta is heavily influenced by Paul Hartzog's Triumvirae:
http://lego.panarchy.com/index.php?page=Triumvirae

It sports three blaster cannons, three big mean wing-things, and some
interesting SNOT construction.  Had to be really creative to get it to work.
Paul, I can really appreciate this three-sided building.

Notice the two wing configurations - no clue what they're used for yet, they
just look cool.

I'm in the process of moving my site, so when it's moved, I'll do a little
story page like the rest of my ships.

BTW, I know I'm short one white 1x4 with studs on sides. :-)

-Chris

(...) The Trifecta reminds me of the TIE Defender from the X-Wing vs. TIE Fighter game series. Very cool looking. -Mike Petrucelli (22 years ago, 5-Sep-02, to lugnet.space)

(...) I can see a number of them attached to a cap ship as defense fighters. The colors make the ship too friendly looking though. (maybe that was intended) Over all "Great ship" (love them dome cockpits) (...) Just my $ .02 Mark M. (22 years ago, 5-Sep-02, to lugnet.space)
