Hello, all. I've made an alien fighter: (URL) Dave's Freighter, a model that is inspired by Jon Palmer's Bison MOC (that is truley one the best MOCs ever, IMO) (URL) might make web pages for them later. PLMKWYT, and don't be afraid to criticize. (...) (22 years ago, 29-Dec-02, to lugnet.space)

(...) Thanks! I always like weird shapes and weird colors, and the tri-wing design is hard to make stable. I finally pulled it through in this MOC. (...) Glad you liked it. I got a bit crazy with the palm trees and barrels! :) The interior was (...) (22 years ago, 29-Dec-02, to lugnet.space)

(...) Yeah, I think they must of been a sort of unconscious inspiration, after the Bison. I've always thought of present-day ships and vehicles for inspiration when I build. (...) Well, I took a palm tree apart for some thrusters for the engine (...) (22 years ago, 29-Dec-02, to lugnet.space)
