Yes, I was aiming for anything but
conformity in my design. Adding the
fins to the back was a last moment
decision, but it made a lot of
difference.

Actually, the craft is based off one of
the earlier chapters in my sci-fi story,
Anachronistic Skies. (I'm still writing
Zero Year, although lurking in .space has
given me a lot of concepts to ponder.)
As for secondary inspiration on the
ship itself, I got the idea to build it
after cheaking out your MOC, Jane's ship.

Interesting use, but the front canopy
seems kind of drooped. Not that I dislike
it, but if I were to do so, that might
require a whole reworking of the front
of the model.
But thanks for your advice! I'll probably
take that design element into mind when
I get to work on the para-military variant.

Thank you for your comments!
(got any new projects on the
drawing board?)
