Hey Matt! Nice name. :) I'm glad you enjoy it! I'll make a note to do my best to preserve the cockpit design as un-modified as possable with these modifications I'm doing -- the nose folding down and such, and the modularity. Thanks, and I'll render (...) (22 years ago, 19-Dec-02, to lugnet.space)

Wow, very nice. The droid arms work very well for this type of motion, and the overall look is very cool. Defenintly a good idea. Plus, you could try it for single doors, right? Even the back looks spacey. ;-) Very nice! -JHK p.s. Who's the John (...) (22 years ago, 19-Dec-02, to lugnet.space)

Thanks, Chris! As I said to Gil, I designed it based on the Berinacie AtkCraft, which was almost exactly like a helicopter with the rotors taken off and two directional-thrust ports added. In regard to the color-scheme, I was trying to express how (...) (22 years ago, 19-Dec-02, to lugnet.space)

This is really great Travis. I waited to have a better look at the mechanism before responding. The droid arms are an excellent addition -they give it almost a submarine look, secure as they pull the unit tight. Todd's Sighthound is still one of my (...) (22 years ago, 19-Dec-02, to lugnet.space)
