well,
finally i respond,
and finally an amazing new ship in here.

Adrian, my hat is off. <bows>

have you seen any Peter Elson art?  your ship just
screams Peter Elson.  the form and particularly the
biological markings (darth mauls' face, and Roger Dean's
work also are similar, all of which are drawn from marking
on tabby cats and grasshoppers and beetles and such)

and if that isn't enough, not only does it LOOK awesome,
its actually a cool ship.  greeblies and well planned
design.  I've been trying since the 70s to figure out
a way to do large windows on spaceships.  thank goodness
for your inspirational canopies on the front, its perfect.

also,
here's a ship that uses the new curved pieces w/out pointing
out 'hey i'm using the new SW pieces'!!! its all integrated
and seamless.  So nicely done.

and finally (there's that word again...)
I REALLY REALLY REALLY love the way the 'panels' on the
wings are NOT symmetrical or the same from wing to wing.
You see this a lot in professional design and paintings
and its so hard to pull off in a lego ship. But you did
it exquisitely

thanks for sharing such an awesome ship,
if it breaks on the way to b-fest, i'll help you
rebuild it (i'd love to see HOW its built)

How about a new capital ship? Okay, so it's barely a cap ship at 112 studs long, but it's still a nice big piece of work. The Blood Moon can be found on the space page. Adrian -- www.brickfrenzy.com (22 years ago, 13-Jun-02, to lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.space) !!
