The "Duvernay" is an Akins Class Research Starship, customized for orbital
anthropological research. The scientists of the Duvernay specialize in
'feral humans.' Feral humans were apart of the original exodus into space
and crashed on habitable planets. Losing connection with technology over
generations and generations (earliest feral humans date from over 1000 years
ago!), they have reverted to a more 'primitive' lifestyle.
Notes: This is my 2nd attempt at a subSHIP and whoa it failed! However, I
learned the magic a little color can give and am currently redesigning the
Duvernay to be a single deck ship.. with a similiar design aesthetic.
==> feel free to try out all your meanest comments because i already know
this one bites it.

| Lenny - Don't be so down on yourself... we all have our off times. For what it's worth, I think it's a great attempt. I like how you tried to break up the box shape by using the sloped braces. While it probably didn't pan out the way you wanted, (...) (22 years ago, 26-Feb-03, to lugnet.space)

| I think you should try more non-traditional building if you are not satisfied with this design. SNOT can do ALOT. Whoa new motto. Anyway, I'd say just experiment, most of my best MOCs come from taking a few parts and tring to figure out new and (...) (22 years ago, 26-Feb-03, to lugnet.space)

| wow... your right. that is ugly. I don't think I would have admitted making that, much less documented and posted it. I guess that if I had a suggestion, it might be to think less architecturally. This thing looks way more like a moonbase than an (...) (22 years ago, 26-Feb-03, to lugnet.space)

| (...) It looks like a really cool design for a ship made from a converted cargo container, or an emergency escape vessel from a war-torn planet-very functional, small, & rugged. This is not meant to be a mean comment, that's just what it reminded me (...) (22 years ago, 26-Feb-03, to lugnet.space)

| (...) Huh. I won't say anything mean, because, well, that's not constructive criticism. I will say (as someone else also mentioned) that this looks more architectural than spacefaring. Elaborate on the shape a bit and it would make a pretty nifty (...) (22 years ago, 26-Feb-03, to lugnet.space)

| I don't think this is ugly. 1. it looks like Noah's Ark 2. I like the way you achieved an angled front end it looks like you used tiles and hinges 3. I like the use of the old style windows 4. Modularity is always a plus to me 5. the angled brick (...) (22 years ago, 26-Feb-03, to lugnet.space)
