That's cool! The shape is weird, but it works. The greeblies are great, and I really like the hosing connecting the fuel tank to the rest of the ship. Cool stuff, can't wait for Part II! -JHK (22 years ago, 25-Mar-03, to lugnet.space)

Wow! I've never seen the movie in question, but this looks like a very cool model. I am impressed with the SNOT work. You have way too much gray! :) Do you have any pictures of the hinges and snot pieces you used? 'Cause its hard to find strong (...) (22 years ago, 25-Mar-03, to lugnet.space)

(...) Thanks! I just got out most of my gray and dark gray pieces and fooled around a bit until I liked the shape of the engines. The sniper rifles are a revised version from my old model: (URL) for the compliments, Nathan Lord of the LEGO (22 years ago, 25-Mar-03, to lugnet.space)

Thanks David! The CG does look kinda spare by today's standards, but I kinda like it. It's not overdone like a lot of CG we see now. I love the shot when the Gunstar first takes off and we see it coming towards the camera, spinning to show off its (...) (22 years ago, 25-Mar-03, to lugnet.space)

Thanks Travis! SNOT building can indeed be very frustrating, but you just have to keep working on it until the light bulb flashes on. This project had lots of fits and starts, but you just have to be dogged and relentless! Dave "travis" (...) (22 years ago, 25-Mar-03, to lugnet.space)
