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.
