From my latest creation to my earliest... well, after my dark age, that is. I
made this back in late ‘98 and posted a preview pic in early ‘99, which I think
sets a (shameful) new record for time taken between preview and proper
announcement!
This thing is really, really old school. It’s also very solid and heavy,
weighing in at about 11 kilograms. Not swooshable, which is a bummer... but
then, the micro version is eminently swooshable (and turned out quite well, I
think). I’m eagerly waiting a light grey version of that new trapezoidal 2x2
flag element which will allow me to get the micro’s lower wing shape just right.
Cheers,
