| No, it's not a turbocycle. This is an idea I've had for at least a year. The docking system and cannon were built at the same time as the Odin. Everything else just came together over the last two weeks. Those familiar with the UC timeline for (...) (23 years ago, 16-Jan-02, to lugnet.space)

| Ouch. I don't wanna be its enemy. Gotta hurt. All I can honestly say is, WOW! I've never seen anything like it. Wow, that's nice. Phew. Hard to type with a broken keyboard. Well, great job. (...) (23 years ago, 16-Jan-02, to lugnet.space)

| Thanks for the compliment. The cockpit is actually part of a small ship that connects to the Sleipnir. Looks like I succeed in making the two look like one construct. (...) (23 years ago, 17-Jan-02, to lugnet.space)

| The Dendrobium influenced the overall look, but I tried not to copy it too much (except for the bays). Non airplane like designs tend to be the most interesting ones. Of course, there are some great airplane looking designs around. (...) (23 years ago, 17-Jan-02, to lugnet.space)

| Thanks, Mladen. Actually, the cannon is in a fixed position. The barrel does open up for firing. If the cannon had been off-set, the cannon lowering would have been a cool feature. Alas, the Odin's fin would be in the way in it's current design. (...) (23 years ago, 17-Jan-02, to lugnet.space)

| You have some really cool stuff there. I'll have to go back and look more closely later, but for now, I can say I really like the Starmage as well as your new one, the Sleipnir. Starmage reminds me a little of the Hunter, a fighter/bomber from the (...) (23 years ago, 22-Jan-02, to lugnet.space)
