  Re: Sea Monkey Vehicle Sighted...
 
(...) Thanks! The cockpit really made all the difference, Its roundness really makes the shape organic. The color scheme was very problematic.I ended up changing stud orientation after trying a normal stud-up direction and finding that the stripes (...)

  Re: Sea Monkey Vehicle Sighted...
 
(...) (URL) (...) ARG. LUGnet keeps losing my replies! I had said that I was all over this thing, Joe. It's amazing how 'fishy' you coaxed the bricks to be. It couldn't have been easy to maintain that colour scheme either. All this, and a cockpit (...) (21 years ago, 19-Jun-03, to lugnet.aquazone, lugnet.space, FTX)
 
  Re: Sea Monkey Vehicle Sighted...
 
(...) They are a little more clever than we give them credit for:) (...) Yep, if it makes me wonder what I was thinking, then I definitely built a Sea Monkey weapon:) Actually, my take is that the Sea Monkeys choose to make pscyhologically shocking (...)

  Re: Sea Monkey Vehicle Sighted...
 
(...) Cool concept. But I heard an Alpha Team spy drone was able to get photos of it. Hmmm... perhaps the Sea Monkeys allowed that to happen to show the humans what they're up against. (...) If its good its only because of your massive contributions (...) (21 years ago, 19-Jun-03, to lugnet.aquazone, lugnet.space, FTX)
 
  Re: Sea Monkey Vehicle Sighted...
 
(...) What this really does....hm. I made this to be a command craft. There are no weapons on it, as it's meant to be behind the attack vehicles. The fins serve as a heckuva array for the SM's comm field, enabling the SM to coordinate and control (...) (21 years ago, 19-Jun-03, to lugnet.aquazone, lugnet.space, FTX)
 
  Re: Sea Monkey Vehicle Sighted...
 
(...) 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 (...)

  Re: Sea Monkey Vehicle Sighted...
 
(...) 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 (...)

  Re: Sea Monkey Vehicle Sighted...
 
(...) Nice work Joe, on a good idea. I think that the dorsal fin should be made in the same way as the side fins, though - with some sort of SNOT to turn the studs on their sides to do it. That would nicely complete the cool "spreading spines" (...) (21 years ago, 19-Jun-03, to lugnet.aquazone, lugnet.space, FTX)
 
  Re: Sea Monkey Vehicle Sighted...
 
I'm very interested to hear what this craft does. Is this a defensive craft? Does it have weapons? Is the distortion field part of the sphere of communication? This Sea Monkey business really is taking on a life of its own. Funny to think its only (...) (21 years ago, 19-Jun-03, to lugnet.aquazone, lugnet.space, FTX)
 
  Re: Sea Monkey Vehicle Sighted...
 
(...) Actually, the cockpit isn't on FBTB, it turns out that Gareth lives not too far from me, so he shows up at meetings and I trade parts with him. He wanted a Bohrok canopy part for a MOC and we started playing with the part. And as for the (...) (21 years ago, 19-Jun-03, to lugnet.aquazone, lugnet.space, FTX)
 
  Re: Sea Monkey Vehicle Sighted...
 
(...) Wow! Joe, this thing is great! You nailed the lionfish camoflage. I thought it was black at first but brown is spiffy. Excellent cockpit (missed that at FBTB) and overall form. I do have a question/comment and a criticism. First, off the (...) (21 years ago, 19-Jun-03, to lugnet.aquazone, lugnet.space, FTX)

  Re: MOC: Spy Prawn
 
(...) Add one more to that list :) (...) Like many other people, I saw this on brickshelf a while back. I remember thinking, "Oh man, that would make such a cool Sea Monkey model. I think I'll borrow the design concept." Excellent work. Glad to see (...) (21 years ago, 18-Jun-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.aquazone, FTX)

  Re: Manta Airspeeder
 
(...) Be my guest in doing refinements to this craft as a Sea Monkeys vehicle. I didn't want to do too much detailing at the bottom since it's for non-military use. The only details that you'll see if you look closely enough are the two back flaps, (...) (21 years ago, 6-Jun-03, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.space, lugnet.aquazone)
 
  Re: Manta Airspeeder
 
(...) Wow, it really does have a horsehoe crab feel on the bottom. While Ogel wouldn't mind having this, I tend to think that this might be cool for the Sea Monkeys for a land invasion craft...with appropriate refinements:) Joe Meno (21 years ago, 5-Jun-03, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.space, lugnet.aquazone)
 
  Re: Manta Airspeeder
 
Joe, (...) I was kinda surprised also when I fitted the canopy on the quarter domes that it gave the sleek look that I wanted. I see what you mean about the horshoe crab appearance from the top view. Maybe with some refinements such as weaponry (...) (21 years ago, 3-Jun-03, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.space, lugnet.aquazone)

  Re: Manta Airspeeder
 
(...) Nice looking speeder..the canopy is almost meant to fit on the top of the quarter domes! And it does have an aquatic look about (tho to me it reminds me of a horseshoe crab), or even a retro look. And I want to see the bottom too:) Good job! (...)

Check out our latest MOC from our homepage, Manta Airspeeder; (URL) have been in the Speeder Chase diorama but I didn't have the pieces to build it.
