I used the in-game sprite mostly.  the Cutscene CG model was responsable
for the 4 hangers (2 each side) at the back of the hammerhead and the core
of the neck section.  Wanted to do a valkerie but the Game model and the CG
model are different (the engines are different, have a look)  I wrote to
blizzard and asked for some better pics but they didn't have any to pass out.

Hi ya All Seeing as Microfig models are on the board I thought it would be a good time to post some pics of a Microfig MOC I did a few months back. Nowhere near as detailed as Paul's "Empyrean Flame" and her Sister ship "Lance of Athena". But anyway (...) (23 years ago, 18-Jun-03, to lugnet.space)
