EXCELLENT!!!!!! This is one seriously cool MOC! I was never a big fan of the sand green color until now. Don't think I have seen such a well balanced use or perfect integration of this color before. Keep up the great work Paul, can't wait to see (...) (22 years ago, 21-Feb-03, to lugnet.space)

Ridley Scott is the master of mood in BR...the dismal feel of the perceived future is so effectively meshed with the hardboiled det. fiction/ film noir atmosphere. Throw in the Vangelis on the soundtrack, and the thing just drips mood. I remember (...) (22 years ago, 21-Feb-03, to lugnet.space)

Thanks for the kind words Paul! It's funny that you mention the scale....I had originally intended this to be a small unit, but the size of the cockpit was forced to be larger to use the canopy - the real starting point of the craft. The engines (...) (22 years ago, 21-Feb-03, to lugnet.space)

Thanks Jeff! I'll do some more shots of the cockpit once it's tweaked a little. Indeed the final product is a product of a personal aesthetic, but suggestions often open up avenues of thought that may have been overlooked before. Besides, the (...) (22 years ago, 21-Feb-03, to lugnet.space)
