(...) I've got to agree with Geordan. I wish you'd kept at that carrier concept--the "traditional" carrier, while still cool, has been done a lot and a carrier that holds its "children" on its frame--I've called them "marsupial carriers", because (...)

Wow, thanks for the kind response Linsay! Actually, I was going to leave it open-frame. Two problems with it: 1) Too ungainly, couldn't even hold it properly 2) Not too cool looking 3) How am I to do the back (I actually wanted to put a *huge* tail (...)

(...) shape of the little fighters too. The use of the wedge slopes on 3 sides is really neat. I can just imagine this thing spewing fighters out all over the place. :^) More pics, please!!!! ~Grand Admiral Muffin Head (23 years ago, 17-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.build, lugnet.space)

(...) Paul, Wow, that's so elegant. Do you have any closeups of the fighters? Do the fighter pilots stay in their fighters the whole time, is there a way for them to access the mothership? Thanks, George (23 years ago, 17-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.build, lugnet.space)

(...) Agreed more pics. That is just plain awesome. Reminds me of the carriers from an Animated prime-time mini-seires from 2 or 3 years ago. I would definatly like to see a pic of just the fighter design. -Mike Petrucelli (23 years ago, 17-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.build, lugnet.space)
