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
canopys, although I do like how the roof sits on top of the front. I'm sure
that you could find a nice middle ground.
Lastly that rear room with all the computers, is way to busy for me. there
must be a way to better organize it or make it flow better. I know that
this next suggestion is a lot to ask, but I think that the main problem is
that its long vs wide, and that the doorway at the end removed a lot of
possiblities. could you imagine turning that room 90 and having that door
in the middle of the room, so that the room turns into two halves on either
side of the door.
I love the interior section of the rear wings.. the part between the top and
bottom ply with the good details. That's great stuff. The detailing
reminds me that its sunday and i should goto the mall and by more starwars
kits.
good work
