thank you very much. actually the way I built them was to simply decide
"today I'm going to build... a helicopter", and I would begin. along the way
it would develop a form and from that would come it's function. there were
some vehicles that influenced me, though. the south african G-6 Artillery (I
think that's it's designation) is one of the reasons my vehicles ride on
wheels. the Raptor is a small amalgam of several different helicopters, like
the Ka-50 "Black Shark". next on the list... a nanofig-scale aircraft
carrier (because there's no way I could build a minifig-scale one)

thanks for the feedback
-Anthony

story time: there is an online game called "NationStates"
(www.nationstates.net) (created as advertising for the book "Jennifer
Government", very simple game). anyway, along with this game there is a
forum, where many of the players role-play wars and trade between their
nations. my nation, I decided, would develop lots of military weapons. • but I
wanted to do more than just make up specs for stuff, so I decided I'd • build
all of my vehicles in lego first. so here goes (details about each unit • are
in the .txt files)...
