(...) Nelson, you've captured the wreck nicely indeed. Spotlighted. Any chance of a pre-wreck version of the Estrella? ;-) Cheers Richie Dulin (18 years ago, 21-Apr-07, to lugnet.aquazone)

Very nice! I really like the concept behind this (and I'm not normally partial to organic/animal based ships). You're bringing back lots of memories of hermit crabs though... it's amazing to watch them swap shells, I assume this MOC has a similar (...) (18 years ago, 29-Mar-07, to lugnet.aquazone, FTX)

Ohh...Ahhh! Very nice use of the sand blue, and great camouflage potential for all 3 models I'm assuming. Good to see you building sea monkeys.
