Hey Joel!

Yeah, I cant blame you for getting your hopes up when I mention the great
Ken-tucky.  I would agree that this is not my most impressive model by any
means but my intent was not really to impress.  I was looking to create a
medium sized Star Blazers design that would be effecient and create as much
of the curved nature of these designs as possible.  In the end, I was (maybe
still am) looking to create a fleet of these ships based on single and twin
engine designs.

As for the landing ramp it doesnt move now, but it will.  I was thinking of
having two levels of internal bays, and have the ramp pivot to close off the
cavity as well as to allign to the two levels of internal bays.

Good to hear from you Joel!  Whats up your sleeve these days?

I am never able to wait until the model is finished before I post, so here
is another almost done model.  I haven't finished a lot of the internal
details and the rear portion around the engines still needs work too, but
the overall shape is evident.

heya!

I wouldn't say I don't like it, because there isn't anything 'bad' about
your building techniques on this IMHO, but I will admit I was kinda
disappointed by the... i dunno, simplicity of it?

so far everything you have posted has totally impressed me through the use
of amazing original (but plausible) shapes and solid bricking, so perhaps I
got my hopes up too much when you started the post off with references to
the just-as-astounding Ken-tucky Space Works.  I think that put all these
images in my head that your actual ship couldn't live up to.  :D

That said, I do like the way you did the landing platform... does the ramp
to the interior raise up to close off the entry?

cheers!
Jk

(...) hmmm... actually, one of the things that I like about your past ships is that you never really seemed to be trying to out-do anything, just make solid creative designs. What I mean is that most of the joy was in their poetic use of geometry (...) (21 years ago, 22-Jan-03, to lugnet.space)
