I looked at Soren’s “Lying Bastard” a lot while building, and tried to expand on his Pirate color scheme, also using some of his gun muzzles and greebs. Mladen’s work influenced the square-barrel gun and missile boxes. The cockpit bears a resemblance to Trevor Pruden’s Orca dropship, and the “thruster shot” is reminiscent of Keith Goldman’s “Ghoul”. (There’s a joke in there somewhere, I just know it.) I also used one of Paul Hartzog’s chair designs. I probably missed a credit here, so let me know if I used your idea and didn’t mention you.

I never thought I’d use twelve of those AT-AT click hinges in one MOC, but here you go.

Kyle this is magnificent! I love the overall shape and the weapons/detailing.

Along with Mark N.‘s dropship, this is one of the few ships that looks cool and carries huge cargo. As always, I’m very impressed and somewhat humbled by your work.

In addition to Keith’s and Daniel’s suggestions, I think you should “focus” the colour scheme a bit more. I think if the white curved slopes in the middle were replaced with dark grey ones, or equivalent slopes, the ship would look better... That’s just me though. :-)

Again, great job Kyle! You’re currently one of my favourite builders.
