Greetings!
In taking a short break from a Pre Classic Space project, this came out as a

-Gil

| (...) I'm always impressed with angled construction techniques, and your VTOL thrusters look amazing. I'm looking forward to the non-military model with color parts instead of the military prototype grayscale construction. :) Keep up the great work (...) (21 years ago, 22-Feb-03, to lugnet.space)

| Cool and interessting design as always Gil. I can imagine one of these flying on patrol around some futuristic city. The cockpit seems a little wierd to me. For me it seems like theres a little too much space between the top of it and the pilots (...) (21 years ago, 23-Feb-03, to lugnet.space)
