(URL) Some of you guys have come up with ways to make nano-scale Moonbase modules, but I figured why stop there? Why not make them so they'll fit in with a standard Moonbase layout?

Hey AC, Nicely done. I especially like the picture where you can see two ISD's flying by--playing with scales like that to imply perspective.
