Gil, you've not only caught the PSC feel perfectly, you've made it your own.
I really, really like this one.
Contrary to Chris' suggestion, I'd leave the rear foot as it is. It makes
for a good tripod look - very NASA Landerish. I agree about the painted dome
though. Do you have a clear version? (the LOM T3 Trike has one - and is a
fine set to boot). Other critisisms? Um... replace the 1x1 tile next to the
window with a matching tap greebly? I really have no idea how to
significantly improve this. You've got the PCS thing pretty much nailed.
BTW, does the landing gear tuck away very neatly? I'd like to see a shot
with the gear up.
My only other suggestion - BUILD MORE :)
