Inspired? Plagiarized is more like it. :-)
I had thought about making him in black, but originally wanted to save that
color for a gun, camera or metal detector. In the end, I scrapped them all and
built the probe. I might still have enough black for one of them, but would have
to buy a bunch of transparent pieces for the gun. I was trying to only use what
I have in my collection. Oh yeah, and I was afraid of the balance issue.
I created a DAT file for the both models to help with planning parts as well as
construction. I had to modify a few things on the fly (like the helmet), but it
turned out close. The instructions for the airtanks are here after moderation:
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=49213, otherwise I have a
rendered picture here:

I could post flag details if you want them. I'm not really pleased with how the
red ship turned out. I may rework that when I get some time. Heck, I'll be lucky
to take good pictures any time soon ;)
Thanks for the comments.
