Hey, I really like these. Very nice! Which JS set did you use for the
canopies? Do the canopies have printing on them?
I really like the detail using the LoM doorway (Didn't know where to use
mine) and the fact that you use a jack stone container door as the hatch to
the vehicle. Over all, very good.
BTW...love the combination of megablock and lego on the Port site! Gotta
love all that cheap grey, eh? Inexpensive is good. ;D
I find the Sirius to be very 'Nostromo' in nature. Nice.
