Ahhhh...now thats scummy. Fills me with glee...er...revulsion.
Nice job on the cockpit mod. It doesn't look too much bigger at 2 studs
wider.
My whole goal originally was to get it as close to scale with the Spiffcraft
as I could (spiffcraft 14x16 / scumcraft 12x20)..but like I said I might do
something similar to what you've done in the future. Your engine looks nice
and beefy but I still prefer the downward angled version, even if it might
not make as much sense)

Yeah that canopy looks really cool in yellow.

You mean those really tall slopes like the ones in all of the Arctic sets?
That'd be some super tricked out shrouds (I call 'em fins)
