Travis,
Very cool design you have here. I think the wedges/angles work well to
create a texture and the use of that canopy along with the layered
without-corner plates looks great! That cockpit is chock-full of wirings
and controls and the bubble provides a neat aft (is that right?) view, plus
it offsets the otherwise smoothness of that side of the ship. I really like
the use of those pneumatic parts, what I take to be the Duplonium--neen name!
