Hi all,

After seeing Leonard Hoffman’s awesome Kalashnikov Project, I was inspired to build a ship much bigger than I ever had tried before. After wrestling with several ideas, including a toxic waste disposal transport, I settled on a research vessel.

The first pics are up at MOCpages. More will be added as the ship grows.

PLMKWYT!

(...) Ya know, this got me thinking. When you (the general everyone you) builds a large ship, do you tend to make the interior first and then build the outside to cover it, or do you build the exterior shell and then shoehorn an interior into it? Or (...) (21 years ago, 16-Jul-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
