Wow, you’ve done a lot on this ship. It really looks different, especially in the bow area.

I think I prefer the sleeker look of the original, and the way the antennae tuck into the fuselage.


Well, a problem with the older version was that the antennae didn’t furl all the way flush with the rest of the ship (they’re farthest back in the pic), and this bugged me. That, and it just wasn’t detailed enough inside or outside. And the old shape was actually a little too, um, rotund for my liking.

  
The landing gear are excellent. I can’t wait to see your mock up of how you did it. I’m not very good with technic landing gear that fold, so this would be very educational for me.


It’s a good design, which could even be motorized, I reckon (which would be cool!). I’ll make a mock-up soon.

  
The engine section is excellent. I really think you have a knack with making gaping engine nozzles on your ships. The missile/torpedo ports on the side are a nice touch as well.


Thanks, actually I think that the engine section could have done with another photo or two and a few more greeblies. And yeah, engines must be BIG! One mistake I think people make a lot is to put weeny little engines on their ships.

  
You need to toss in a few photos of the fighters.


You’re right, I do... it’s on my list. Always more pictures... *sigh

  
And finally, DEAR GOD, that man is being attacked by a dinosaur!!!


Hmm, don’t they have movies where you come from? A Galaxy Quest reference is tempting... :-)

Cheers,
