I always enjoy the Port Block Narratives =8^)
As always, I like the bright lighting of your pictures and the natural
backrounds/setting. The X-wing and MF in flight evoke movie flashbacks...
I like the X-wing modifications...You extended the nose to give more cockpit
space? I like the inverted "studs down" approach (no pun/offense against
the .au AFOL club) I never realized why the factory version of the wings
bugged me so much... I like the engine details and the beefier cannons too
(my cannon modifications stopped at adding a 1x2 center stud plate w/ 1x1
cone to the existing design)
I would love to see more pics of your Falcon conversion...especially the
corridor between the cockpit and main cabins of the MF. I received one of
these as a B-day gift, but I haven't found the time/space to construct it
yet. After reading 7190 reviews/comments exhaustively, I realize that I
better be ready to modify it as soon as I build it.
I look forward to reading more about the growing history of Port Block.
John
P.S. I like your inclusion of the "Ship of Riddles" MF Link...I had lost it
somewhere.
