Hey!  I thought we might have to call out the pod search and rescue for Mr.
Maddison!

Amazing return to the fray Chris....so much packed into such a little
package.  The shared bomb magazine is really a thing of beauty.  How do the
pods hook up?  Is it on the right angle stud brackets?

Another slamdunk. Right on.

Cheers,
-Gil

So, in order to get back into the swing of things, I'll debut a pod I've had
built for a couple weeks (before *Adrian* made a two-pod pod.  Show-off :-).

The Gemini Dual Pod Bomber

Pics from 1 up to 12.

This multi-role dualpod is the newest toy of Marine R&D.  It can operate as
a single-craft bomber, or the pods can separate and leave the ion bomb
magazine as a stand-alone remote control craft for kamikaze-style
operations, or to be "just another gun".

The pods are also armed with light blasters, and can land independantly.
When joined, the dualpod can land on either side with built in struts.

Enjoy,
-Chris

(...) Thanks Gil. The pods do hook together w/ the angle brackets, yep. And getting bay doors that looked good on the center section was quite a challenge. Glad you like it. -Chris (22 years ago, 8-Oct-02, to lugnet.space)
