(...) Hi Florian, Thanks. The entire ship is 100% symmetric. Two cells each side. It was difficult working out quite how much blue to mix in with the black. The sets varied in their mix. Possible I should have used a few more blue plates but then (...) (18 years ago, 27-Feb-07, to lugnet.space)

(...) Hi, this looks very good, I like the vertical placement of the detainment cell. The Space Police I colour scheme is well done, but the ship shouldn't have any more brick in black in it, or it had become too dark, IMO. Is there a detainment (...) (18 years ago, 27-Feb-07, to lugnet.space)

(...) Hey, that's cool! Very sharp and clean-looking. Nice use of color scheme. I'd take a shot at building one if I had the right windscreen. The front landing gear arrangement, and tailfins, look pretty nifty, among other details. -best, Wolf (18 years ago, 26-Feb-07, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) Nice work! The colour scheme and the style of ship work well together. The juxtapositioning of old and new elements yields an interesting form! Thanks for sharing. Cheers Richie Dulin (18 years ago, 26-Feb-07, to lugnet.space, FTX)

Looking very good! Especially for a space MOC ; ) The streamlined nature of the whole thing appeals to me and the back story represents everything that makes me cringe...and then smile... at space. God Bless and thanks for sharing, Nathan (URL) (18 years ago, 23-Feb-07, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) There is an alternative to the brasso, especially if you are merely trying to do away with scratches and not trying to remove print. The key, FUTURE's Floor Wax.

(...) Be warned, though: Brasso will seriously damage softer plastic parts like baseplates. I totally ruined a 48x48 baseplate that way when I used it to brasso the printing off of large quantity of tiles. --Anthony (18 years ago, 23-Feb-07, to lugnet.parts, lugnet.space)
