I have posted some pictures on Brickshelf of a mini-fig scale freighter that I
made.  The project started from the desire to use the transparent UFO saucer

accessed through doors and a fold down ramp in the back.  The ship is heavy -
about 15lbs.  I tried to make the shape of the ship flow - something that I
found is hard to do with rectangular bricks!
