Thanks Paul,

Yeah on-perpendicular-ness is what I feel to be the key to successful space
MOCs. As mentioned by Gil, the pyramidal shape gives way to the feeling of a
utility vehicle which is what I was going for. As you have proved, research
is the best way to begin a model, along with having set goals for the design
to achieve, as I did here.

Glad you liked it,

Zac
