Not just one model but a whole line of them!  Great work as usual, Jeremy.  Here
are some things that I noticed:

Consistent use of engine design (cone in sw engine, or similar) except for the
Embark-class Destroyer.  It really makes the whole line of ships more connected.
I really like the look of the engine on these models.  I've tried it before but
always rejected it.  I will have to try it some microfig ideas.

The Toho-class Battleship Insurmountable has a very 'Star Destroyer' look, and it
is not even the biggest.

Engine flaps on the Ogre-class Dreadnaught Warlock.  I'm also planning on using
flaps on future designs.  A nod to Ken.

Sideways steep slope pieces on the Warlock as well.  Very cool looking!  I use
those in a ship that I'll post tomorrow, of course practically every ship I have
made has 'em.  I really need to try different things.

Hey all,

Seeing what miracles Ken Takeuchi has worked with ABS, and seeing that Karim

I've added five new nanofig-scale starships to my Web site.  I've been working
on them for about four months now; the latest was the result of an overnight
building frenzy after being inspired by Ken's models last week.

Anyway, you can see them at:

The quality of the pics isn't the best; I'd gladly take suggestions on how I
can improve my digital camera skills.

And as always, LMK!  :-,
