This SHIP started in 2002 as an experiment to build a click-hinge based
cylinder, and eventually became a composite of various SNOT and non-standard
building techniques. I don’t have any cool sci-fi backstory about the origin
or purpose of the vessel, so I’ll just leave that ambiguous. It is definitely
not minifig scale. I figure a human would stand about 2-3 plates tall at this
scale. The length is 153 studs (47.6 in)(120.9 cm) and it is obnoxiously
heavy.

Please let me know what you think.
Thanks,

This rocks, I am blown away. Gray and blay is thoughtfully mixed, and that looks
really good. The “nose” has an interesting ducklike shape, giving this SHIP an
unique profile. And a microscale SHIP, did you calculate how long it is for a
microfig? Must be seriously huge. Not too sure about the trans-red in the
engines, though.
The conclusion is that this is a seriously cool MOC. Have you really been
building this for four years?
This pic of the “waistline” is my favourite, absolutely beautiful:
