Here is a small transport I made yesterday. I call it the Drone Transport.
It has two engines mounted on either side of the vehicle with the intake
scoops in the front. It has a large satelite dish on top to monitor the
destination. You can open the back to unload the cargo, and it also has a
robot to assist you with the task. The back half-circle has a custom made
sticker I put on because the plain ol' gray looked too plain. Don't worry
purists, it's just taped on :-) The cockpit was the hardest part to make.
The bottom of it was a small half-circle piece that came from the Technis
sub. It took me awhile to figure out how to make the windshield line up and
then allow the captain enough head-room to fit. I hope you like it, comments
are very mush appreciated!

I like this a lot. Very compact and functional. I'm really anto storage space and opening hatches and stuff. How deep is the cargo area? Does that little blue box open as well?

(...) Nick, Looks great. I like that it has a bulky feel. I also like the color scheme. Yellow is always good in my book. : ) I noticed that the pilot doesn't have any controls. Some of my small ships have this problem/feature also. I just say that (...) (23 years ago, 31-May-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.space)

(...) Very nicely done. I can imagine that being used as a short-hop courier between planets. I like the use of the sticker at the rear. It seems to fit pretty well. :^) ~Grand Admiral Muffin Head (23 years ago, 31-May-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.space)

(...) My only complaint is that it looks about one brick to high, but other than that, it has a really cool design and excellent innovation. Keep it up! ZaC Soden www.ozbricks.com/battlespace (23 years ago, 31-May-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.space)

I personally hate yellow (except in Blactron 1 style accents) but the form is really good. I like how you transformed the Aquazone propeller gaurd into engines. Very Cool. -Mike Petrucelli (23 years ago, 2-Jun-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.space)
