(...) Minor nit: These two rules conflict. The Classic Space/Castle helmet hasn't been officially released as an LDraw part. Which makes it hard to include classic space mini-figures in an LDraw model. Roy Earls developed some unofficial versions of (...) (24 years ago, 27-Oct-00, to lugnet.build.contests, lugnet.space)

Hi Jason. I like the Quirinus. It's what I would expect a "Classic Space" mecha to look like. ;^) I think the "tiger stark" has a nice torso design, but the arms and legs look a bit too proportionally small. You might think about making them a bit (...) (24 years ago, 27-Oct-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Hey Mark, Dang. would love to get more "interesting" baseplates. Besides flat road and green ones, I only have two of the old moon plates from my Galaxy Explorer.

DOH! I knew you'd built one, Tony. But I didn't realize I gave mine the same name! I've always liked yours anyway. Sort of a "cargo" version of the ship.

(...) Nice model- very consistent with period designs. I'd say it gets bonus points for being an alternate of two existing sets, though the wing shape is much more like space sets from a few years later. -- Tony Hafner www.hafhead.com (24 years ago, 27-Oct-00, to lugnet.build.contests, lugnet.space)
