Thanks! This really was a case of function before form. I built the entire
cental axis and cockpit separately. Then I attached them and added plates to
cover up the gaps.

Specifically, the wheels are this are of course the main accomplishment, but
I quite enjoy the texturing of the central hub. Using layered and angled
plates to greeble rather than the traditional detail tiles and elements again
give a system effect using technic technique.

I think varying shapes and layers often works better than greebling, especially
across large surfaces. Thanks for the comments, Gil!
