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 there)

Anyways, I hope someone learns from my mistakes. ;-)

Mladen Pejic, over and out!

  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
  mine had the fighters recessed a la Suffren [1]--is a very neat
  idea.

  Looking at the pictures, though, I can tell your fit of rage
  was well-founded.  It looks GREAT but closing those very odd
  shapes would have been maddening!  But, then, those odd shapes
  *are* something you do very well.

  Anyways, I'd love to see the concept carried further.  All 25
  gallons of my grey are in use at the moment (ack), but with
  enough time I'll put together a marsupial for Suffren's snub
  fighters.

  [1] Maybe they should be "scorpion carriers," but scorpion =
      sting to most people, not = carrying children on its back.
