Wow!  That is a cool ship!  There is way to few ships in the LEGO universe,
and this one is a beauty!  The sweeping of the bow is amazing, the whole
shape is nice and smooth and very "un-LEGOish".  My only criticism is the
overwhelming amount of black, as Don and Nathan have pointed out.

I am thinking about changing the canopy to black or brown.  the blue looks a
bit out of place.  What do you think?

Blue looks okay, but I think red or tan would be better, though I don't
think those slopes are available in tan :-(

A note: the life boat uses Nathan Wells's cool chinese fishing boat design.
Normally i wouldn't copy the design but it looks so cool and fits well with
the theme.

Copy away!  I don't mind at all, I'm glad you like the design and I'm
flattered that you used it with this very cool model!

Keep building,

Nathan
