that creative.  One question though, where does that transparent dome you
used come from.  It's clearly way to large for it to be a standard 4 x 4
dome or am I fooling myself here?

P.S.  I don't know.  The soul window is a much more fitting name for that
ship.  It's kind of disconcerning that Sam Blackjack couldn't pick up on • the
obvious reference being a P.I. and all. ;-)

I liked the name Soul Window personally, but I felt it was a bit too noble
for a ship that is obviously a gag (don't tell Sam I said that - he'd empty
all 6 into me for bad-mouthing his ship).  At the same time, I didn't want
to leave it out, so I referenced it in my description.  As for Sam, he's not
well-versed in all that tree-huggin' hippy junk.   ;)

The standard Life On Mars dome is 6x6 (the same size as the trans-red radar
dish in back), but ldraw isn't very good at rendering it -- maybe the
faceted look also gives the illusion of its size being off?
