"Duvernay" a Anthropological Research Starship, studying feral humans. It
is the Karalehn Industries Akins Class, Proxia.
note: this is the 2nd version of this ship. It has gone from three decks to
one. I realized I was trying to do too much all at once. I think this is
the first thing i've made with some serious greebling. I think it turned out
well.
* the 8x8 radar dishs on the sides are planetary sensors that hold up during
hyperspace traveling. They feature one of the seed parts for this month.
* there are two engine systems: a hyperspace one (the two nacelles off the
back) and the thrusters (for sub-light speeds, maneuvering in a starsystem-
the three red ones)
* the black thing on the back is the retractable solar panel than generates
power for the engines.
* eight crew members of six anthropologists and two to run the ship.
criticism, ideas, questions, thoughts, off topic ramblings.. all welcome

| Good job, Lenny! This MOC immediately caught my eye as I was skimming through the recent stuff on Brickshelf. It's a cool design, though most of the pics showing the whole model were a bit fuzzy and don't do it justice. I dig the detailing in the (...) (22 years ago, 2-Mar-03, to lugnet.space)

| I really like the shape of that ship. That's great use of all the hinges. The red stripe around it is cool. Good job with the interior. I like the greebling, too. -Andrew (...) (22 years ago, 2-Mar-03, to lugnet.space)

| Oh, WOW. That looks great, Lenny. Definently an improvement on your earlier 'ugly ship.' I love the shape of this one, it looks almost like a bunch of modules connected together with a hallway. The greebling is great, and I like the shape of the (...) (22 years ago, 2-Mar-03, to lugnet.space)

| This ship is great, but I don't like the front. A single flat window as a cockpit? It just doesn't seem right. Maybe it needs a little more work on that part, but the rest is gorgeous. I really like the way you designed those small chambers with (...) (22 years ago, 2-Mar-03, to lugnet.space)

| this is a major improvement. you've come a long way. I agree with most of the earlier posters. The "navigation" area is too much like a room. it would be better served to maybe knock out those walls and replace them with slopes and a couple of (...) (22 years ago, 2-Mar-03, to lugnet.space)

| Hi Leonard, There's a lot to like in this ship. The way you've achieved the angled shapes of the bridge and cabins is very good. The dual engine systems are a nice touch. I also like how you've made the cabins feel all homey with flowers and such. (...) (22 years ago, 3-Mar-03, to lugnet.space)

| Hey, This is a great job. Good design, good job keeping the model clean, and neat interiors. Welcome to the world of buildin' big ships... you'll love it, then you'll hate it and build small... then get the desire to build it big again... then fail, (...) (22 years ago, 3-Mar-03, to lugnet.space)

| Cool! It's a bit of a 'me too' at this stage, but this turned out nicely, Lenny. Mind you, I never thought that the orginally was ugly...just looked like the smaller part of a very large ship. However, this was an excellent predecessor to the (...) (22 years ago, 3-Mar-03, to lugnet.space)
