In reading my original post I hope I didn't give the impression this was
supposed to look like classic space..... only to have been inspired by it.
Which it was. This set, in fact, is the one that was sort of in my mind as
I was building:

Of course that building only had 3 walls, but that added to the playability
factor.

Agreed. Unfortunately, ya builds with what parts ya gots. :)
That is actually the closest thing I have to any sort of bubble canopy like
that. At one point I was considering putting two Y-Wing canopies hinge end
to hinge end. Sort of like an observation car on a trans-Canada train.
However, in the end, I felt this one looked a bit more finished.... even if
it's not really clicked into the bricks below it.
Thanks for the comments!
