Wow! That's heavy...hmmm...I've never actually weighed mine though, think
I'll try doing that. Does like a normal bathroom scale work okay?

:) Well it's okay if you can't tell the difference. Model paint works the
best, you can make em look completely authentic, but it's expensive and you
don't get much. I like using Partha paints because they are very non
permanent but still look okay for esthetics. I always like my ships to look
uniform and consistent...don't think the big ship would look as good if the
hulls were brown and looked like boats pieces...he he he...

Yup, I have more ships too that I'm gonna try scanning, also workin on getting
some better pictures (most of the actually pictures I got were REALLY fuzzy).
I'm also going to make some scans of my older brothers stuff and we are
feverishly trying to come up with names for all these ships. The big one will
be called either the Behemoth, or the Juggernaut....but at this point it's
undecided.

Yup, sometimes projects of mine can last several months to a year. I've
actually built that big ship several times, the first design was all one
section though and the back looked sorta like the millennium falcon, and it
had two Cosmic Fleet Voyagers on the front, I then moved to a smaller one with
just one CFV, and actual nacelles but it was still much smaller than the
current one. And then the current one is my latest design. I have thought
about making the nacelle front ends CFV's and then doing something else for
the front middle section...hmmm...gosh I love Legos! Completely limitless
possibilities. :)
