Very nice design. It looks almost organic. I especially like the modular
load system in the back - very cool.

Thanks Jeromy!

It did turn out looking a bit like a manta ray or some such in the end. I
drew somewhat off the large bomber(?) from the Tanis scenes in Raiders of
the Lost Ark -- something that Admiral Muffin Head caught almost
immediately. :) I suppose naming it "Manta" wouldn't have been too bad of an
idea... Condors are kinda big and slow.. And it does have an extra 'sting'
in the back with the carried modules/vehicles.. Maybe JTI will have to
consider a name change. :)

I noticed that you also find those Luke Skywalker figs from the Speeder Bike
set to be useful for commandos. Looks like some very nice firepower that
they're carrying.

I love the camoflauged torsos. I have 4 of them and it just seemed fitting
to make an assault team using them. The Hoth Trooper torsos were used on the
Arctic team on the far right, under the Arctic "fur-lined" hoods. :)

Again, great model!
