I have to agree with Tim, and Drew here. Like Tim said, that kind post
everything I build attidude is "disturbing". I mean, if you have a design that
you think is cool or has some aspects about it that is cool, then post it, BUT
if you have a very rushed and simplistic design that is very generic and boring
than consider rebuilding it or scraping it all-together, instead of telling us
about it. I'm sorry Rick, but most of your designs are very box-like, HOWEVER
you do have some COOL designs, like the Caducous and Ultima, nice us of those
scaffolding-like thingys... So remember quality over quantity, and don't think
you're the only one who did this, I personally have some below par models I
told people here about (Heavy Hovertank and Heavy Fighter).
