I usually build castles, but this is my first foray into building microfig (or
maybe nanofig?) scale MOC spaceships:

  http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=380

There are two ships, a gray and orange cruiser named the Ares, and a
green and gray tanker named the Neptune.  I plan to create a nice web page home
for them sometime in the near future, but for now, here are the pictures.

The ships are built entirely with parts from Star Wars sets. I found that
limiting the number of pieces I had to work with helped me find creative ways
of building.  It was a fun exercise for the brain and the fingers. :)

No kidding. Those are fantastic! I am especially fond of the Ares, due mostly to it's color scheme. They are inspiring me to build a few of my own...to be posted in a few days. Keep up the great work! (...) (25 years ago, 19-Apr-00, to lugnet.space)
