Ooh, very cool, Joe. Very interesting solution to a tough-to do creature. I
like the cockpit, altough I would have to agree that I think the main body is
a little too blocky, and seems kind of ‘open’ right at the behind the head.
Also, the striping on the body, while a cool effect, seems overdone. I think
it would look better using white bricks and just one brown plate. Looks a
bit garbled right now.
I like how the fins spread out, and how they hide the engines.
Nice job.

Thanks!
The Lionfish is still being worked on, and I see your point about the openess
behind the head. A lot of that space is made for allowing all of the parts to
hinge, although there is a place where I can fill the space in.
The blockiness of the body was a ‘given evil’ of the design...I would have had
to use wedges to round out the body shape, and brown has very few of those.IfI
went to studs up, the striping would have become much more complicated.
And the striping is a ‘close’ version of a lionfish’s patterns, including the
body. A white body would make the fins look wrong.
thanks for the comments! I’ll be working on the fish some more an hopefully have
pix done soon!
