|
This MOC Stared out when I was wondering if I could combine the Jedi starfighter canopy with the Naboo starfighter canopy. I wanted a cool looking forward/behind cockpit. So last Saturday I pushed aside my month old, half built frieghter and started (...) (22 years ago, 4-Dec-02, to lugnet.space)

Weird... but I like it. Nice effect- I always love canopies like that. They compare better to today's 2-man aircraft. The lasers on the sides are cool too, they make for a cool shape on this ship. Were do you get these ideas! :) very cool, can't (...) (22 years ago, 4-Dec-02, to lugnet.space)

Jamie this is very cool. I'm not sure if you did this on purpose, but the cockpit is actually reminiscent of the head of the alien in the Alien movies! I really like the dark grey side structures that house the cannons, very good SNOT work. This (...) (22 years ago, 4-Dec-02, to lugnet.space)

I love this thing. I've been pencilling some ideas out for a little while for ships to be used by the ACER division....not too big, not too small..just big enough to carry some firepower and gear. This ship suits that role perfectly - I'm afraid (...) (22 years ago, 4-Dec-02, to lugnet.space)

(...) Hooooly moly. That's one schaweet looking model. Needless to say I stole a bunch of ideas from those teaser pics for my Carona atkcraft. The tail and cockpit rock! Keep up the great work! -- Mark Nelson LCC Command: (URL) (22 years ago, 4-Dec-02, to lugnet.space)

Hey Jamie, me again. I am completely lacking in original ideas these days. So, as many of you may have noticed, I have a habit of reproducing other peoples' designs. I hope this 'cloning' habit I have comes across as genuine appreciation of the MOC, (...) (22 years ago, 4-Dec-02, to lugnet.space)

Thanks John. I was planning on getting the webpage done by the end of the month. But it might take a little longer. My spare time is limited due to work and all. The canopies did come out quite well I think. That Jedi starfighter canopy is not an (...) (22 years ago, 4-Dec-02, to lugnet.space)

Thanks Matt. It was satisfying to build. Recently I hadn't much time to do much with lego and felt like I lacked any new ideas. But workin with the canopies really helped that out and I'd have to say that this is probably my new favorite space MOC (...) (22 years ago, 4-Dec-02, to lugnet.space)

Thanks Gil. If you need to, steal away. I'd like to see other renditions of it. Besides, some of your stuff has inspired me. There is a cut away pic in the folder so you can get a better view of the inner building. Jamie (...) (22 years ago, 4-Dec-02, to lugnet.space)

(...) Dang, you copied that pretty good. I like it. I have the hardest time building something by just looking at pics of it. Using the long red hinge pieces is hard for me cause I only have the 2 of them, hence the red detail of the ship. Keep up (...) (22 years ago, 5-Dec-02, to lugnet.space)

Those canopies look really good. Inside the cockpit looks nice, too. I like the guns and landing gear. You can't go wrong with the Aliens Dropship. -Andrew (...) (22 years ago, 6-Dec-02, to lugnet.space)

Nice Jamie! Great use of the canopies. That tail reminds me of the one I built a few years ago: (URL) job, all around. That sucker looks *mean*. 8) Ben ---...--- Ben Vaughan buster@marsbase.com (URL) lugnet.space, Jamie Neufeld writes: *snip!* (...) (22 years ago, 9-Dec-02, to lugnet.space)
