Now this is interesting...

Three days ago I built the Auricom craft from Wipeout 3 out of LEGO (in
minifig scale), and I thought I was the first to do so. I built a rough
model, entirely out of memory, so while it looks good, it's not an accurate
reproduction of the original craft.

Anyway, I just thought (5 minutes ago) "Hey, I have nothing to do, why not
search Lugnet for 'Wipeout'? I bet no one has built an AG craft." I search,
and I find your post, dated *today*!(!!!!)

These things happen to me all the time though, I think about doing something
(in this case, posting pics of my craft on Lugnet) and a few days later
someone else has done it instead ;) *scary music plays*

The pics of my craft can be found here: (I just took them with my digital
camera to show them off, since someone wanted to see more ships from
Wipeout. No nice webpage or anything, just a directory containing the images.).

I plan on building a more accurate version soon.

Sorry for stealing the attention :) I think your model is very nice, it is
accurate and it looks really "swooschy" :).

Not bad.  If you wish, I do have some reference pics of the Auricom craft
from Wipeout 3 if you want to use them to make your model more accurate.

Believe it or not, someone by the name of Greg Majewski did build a very
nice mini-fig scale model of the AG-systems craft (wipeout 3 version) and
had pictures of it on brickshelf.com.  His model is what influenced me to
try my hand at building a wipeout craft.  Unfortunatly, the pics are no
longer on Brickshelf and, like an idiot, I never bothered to save them on my
own hardrive. :-(  Oh well.
