I really like it. The five engine/wing is blended nicely into the design. I also like the fact that the wings aren't all the same, which gives a bit of assymetry to the symmetric design. :) (16 years ago, 5-Nov-08, to lugnet.space, FTX)

I'm no space fan, but you've captured a lot of what I associate with the genre in one nice slick MOC. Good work! I would love to see a slightly longer version, but the scale of the various wing components and the angles of their alignment is (...) (16 years ago, 5-Nov-08, to lugnet.space, FTX)

The Cormorant debuted at BrickCon 08, but it's history goes back 9 years to a post-Mindfest build inspired by my haul from that event. I ended up with a bunch of wings with no matching pairs, so I built a ship to use them. (URL) The first draft> (...)
