    PCS V.R.A.P. Gunship —Gil Shaw
   Greetings! A little dabble in PCS fun. Hope this bandwagon doesn't give me slivers.... :) (2 URLs) Da page> Lemmeknowhowitstinks Cheers, -G (21 years ago, 23-Jul-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

     (...) Hey G man. I like each and every little thing about this ship. The design under the cockpit, the bomb bay (very cool!), the nacelles, the individual little greebly details, everything. But for some reason I don't like the shape it creates as a (...) (21 years ago, 23-Jul-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
    
         Re: PCS V.R.A.P. Gunship —Gil Shaw
     (...) Always with my shapes! ;) Thanks man. I'll be honest and fess up that the shape was more of a force fit...I find that building in a style outside my own is tuff...perhaps this comes though in the unorthodox shape. Ah well...it's all fun. (...) (21 years ago, 23-Jul-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
    
         Re: PCS V.R.A.P. Gunship —Chris Maddison
     (...) Hell yes it's all fun - that's what it's about. And I know what you mean about forced fit - you're preaching to the choir there. I don't know if I even have a "style" yet. -Chris (21 years ago, 23-Jul-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

     (...) Hehe...tanx. That's my favorite part too. I bomb the Spongebob on my computer daily. :) Cheers, -G (21 years ago, 23-Jul-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
   
        Re: PCS V.R.A.P. Gunship —Paul Baulch
     (...) Very PCS and nicely balanced, well done. I wouldn't have tried so hard to use those big grey inverse-canopy things, though - they plainify that area a bit too much IMO. Cheers, (URL) Sci-Fi LEGO> (21 years ago, 23-Jul-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
    
         Re: PCS V.R.A.P. Gunship —Gil Shaw
     (...) Thanks Paul! Truth be told, I have a woefully low supply of curved elements...I hoped to do the nacelles in the same style. So, I made do with what I had...ergo the canopy thingamaboppers. Cheers, -G (21 years ago, 23-Jul-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
   
        Re: PCS V.R.A.P. Gunship —Philip Painter
     (...) This is great. I love the shape. And as mentioned, the torpedo bay is perfect. I would agree with Paul, the areas the grey canopies are in look like they need a little more. Great job. (URL) (21 years ago, 23-Jul-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
    
         Re: PCS V.R.A.P. Gunship —Gil Shaw
     (...) Thankye sir! Aye...(see my response to Paul). Perhaps this will encourage me to pick up the new shuttle. Yikes. That's all I need...more encouragement. Cheers, -G (21 years ago, 23-Jul-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
   
        Re: PCS V.R.A.P. Gunship —Leonard Hoffman
     (...) Nothing about this stinks! What a great fighter! excellent use of curves and straight edges working together, a unique design, and that awesome main gun! The ship looks like a big tough mf. The Eastern Block will surely need to develop a new (...) (21 years ago, 23-Jul-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
    
         Re: PCS V.R.A.P. Gunship —Gil Shaw
     (...) Too kind Lenny. It looks as if the race is escalating.... the VRAP will be well tested in the skies about PCS HQ! Cheers, -G (21 years ago, 23-Jul-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

     (...) The only thing I can knock is the non-LEGO stand that you're using ;) -Duane (21 years ago, 23-Jul-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
    
         Re: PCS V.R.A.P. Gunship —Gil Shaw
     (...) Well I was done with it at the time. :) Cheers, -G (21 years ago, 23-Jul-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
   
        Re: PCS V.R.A.P. Gunship —Joe Meno
     (...) Nice little ship! I really like how you did the engine pods. The angled look of the pods really work well. And I'm always a fan of the big honkin' gun:) Joe Meno (21 years ago, 23-Jul-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
    
         Re: PCS V.R.A.P. Gunship —Gil Shaw
     (...) And it be a honkin'...right up the Eastern Blok's tailpipe! Thanks for the kudos Joe. Cheers, -G (21 years ago, 23-Jul-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
   
        Re: PCS V.R.A.P. Gunship —Chris Giddens
     (...) Gil, this is all about some space.man. GREAT PCS model. Extra cool extras. When the LLX2 class vessel launches soon, she will need fighter escort. :-) Dude, thanks for the props on your site. Keep buildin' em Pre Classic Spacey. (URL) Admiral (...)

         Re: PCS V.R.A.P. Gunship —Gil Shaw
     (...) Thanks man! It wasn't easy to try and emulate it, but perhaps with more practice... Absolutely...several can be ready for delivery whenever the need arises. :) Props given where well deserved! Cheers, -G (21 years ago, 23-Jul-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
   
        Re: PCS V.R.A.P. Gunship —Mladen Pejic
     Looks great! I like how you did the cockpit and the nacelles. Really creative use of parts to achieve those angles. I'd love to see an even heavier two seater version of this PCS gunship. ;-D I can't really make out the landing gear though. I see (...) (21 years ago, 23-Jul-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
    
         Re: PCS V.R.A.P. Gunship —Gil Shaw
     (...) Thank you sir! The inspiration was indeed a heli...the Hind to be specific. As for the landing gear....hehe...you've spotted the major flaw. They are indeed 2 wirey legs. With the torpedo bay, it's all I could manage unfortunately :) As I (...) (21 years ago, 23-Jul-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
   
        Re: PCS V.R.A.P. Gunship —Sylvia Tresto
     (...) That don't stink at all! I was just catching up on reading .space and this really stuck out. I like the cockpit up there and the whole PCS-look 'n feel. Love, Sylvi (21 years ago, 24-Jul-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)  
    
         Re: PCS V.R.A.P. Gunship —Gil Shaw
     (...) Many thanks Sylvi....as mentioned, it was harder than I thought to build in another's style, but a lot of fun and challenging at the same time. Cheers, -G (21 years ago, 24-Jul-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
   
        Re: PCS V.R.A.P. Gunship —Andrew Saada
   (...) Gil, Hey, cool lil' gunship you've made. I know I looked through all the pictures sometime before the weekend in my attempt to review missed creations but I guess I forgot to respond. Anyway, there isn't too much that has not been said. But I (...) (21 years ago, 29-Jul-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
