Interesting stuff John....some good designs with a sense of practicality.
Mail Truck:
I dig space MOC that have a real life purpose. The stout shape of this one
goes well with it's present day counterpart.
Skystreak:
This is definately on the right track. I can always tell one of your ships
by the cockpit area...always trying something new and interesting...I like
it! Since you asked for any constructive criticism, I might offer a couple
for this one. The colour scheme of white and dkgrey is a good one, but it
might come across better if the colours are grouped. I've been trying this
myself lately, taking the lessons from colourbuilders here. It seems that if
a section or a continuous line is all the same colour, the second tone looks
that much more dramatic and cleaner. It also seems that any engreeblement
often looks best when it matches the colour below...looks like the same
surface, but with texture.
Again, these are improvements I'm trying to incorporate into my models as well.
Bot Odyssey:
Ahh, the Plano road kit. Really gotta get myself one of these. A fun story
using some familiar rouges...good stuff!
Cheers,
-Gil
