| I saw Final Fantasy on saturday and was inspired to build a new ship. I used my Eiretech personal transport for the front. This craft services the company's growing asteroid mining division.

I am also trying to come up with a way to do the marines... helmet is really hard to emulate but I am hoping to (...) (23 years ago, 23-Jul-01, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build, lugnet.general)

| WOW! You've captured the look of the marine transporter perfectly. I love all the designs from FF, especially Zeus. I was drooling every time it was shown... Back to your model, the ramp is really cool. Also, are you planning on putting any landing (...) (23 years ago, 23-Jul-01, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build, lugnet.general)

| The landing gear of the troop transport is akin to that of the Harrier jump jet. A pair of wheels extends near the nose and at the tail along the center line. Each nacelle has a wheel at the tip that is exposed to provide balance for the craft. Toys (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build, lugnet.general)
