Hey Chris,
Absoultely beautiful! The way that you have vertically elongated the PCS
design looks superb. I love the cargo doors and ramp, but my only gripe is
that she is maybe a bit too greebled - or the greebles don't have that
'under the removed panel' feel.
I love watching the evolution of PCS. It really is is very interesting!
Keep up the good work,
Zac
