Yes, it did! Thanks james!
That is just what I was thinking. I love that look, Michel captured the
octan feel very well. I think I will do something like that in a similar
pattern, maybe bigger, with a valve station or two to get the trucks fueled.
I was getting those side walls, and those blocky angles, and got
discouraged, but i think that is the only thing you can really do, outside
of using the Droid Escape and having a a rounded rectanly look! : )
Thanks again!
