The blackout on Thursday was the impetus for this creation.

Hmmm... What else to say. Well, building large S P A C E MOCs is hard. So I respect some of you guys even more now. The last ship (no that Landing Barge doesn’t count, that was just a ‘container’) I actually built was around 3 years ago!

Here’s hoping you all enjoy it. ;-)

Also, I have uploaded the .MPD files for the “Rhino” and “Sentinel”.

Dude-

Excellent work! I like the recent trend of MOC’s that are designed with neat, smooth lines, and greeblies that accent the creation rather than dominate it.

This MOC is very well done. I love the attention given to the real-world necessities in the living quarters. Great! There’s some nice use of parts, too: I like the glass displays of the gunners, and really like the simple elegance of the the ladder made of the 1x2 plates with handles, with the fold-down grille to access the airlock

I’ll agree with the other comments about the weaponry. I think it’s just a matter of scale. The long barrels of the guns make the ship look a little like a bug. I also don’t buy that with 6 engines that the ship only moves at a “reasonable” speed, and has “very good fuel economy.” I’d think that you’d either move wicked fast or get terrible fuel economy if you strap 6 of ‘em on that thing. I say upgrade the engines, and have it move like a solar wind, and who cares about fuel economy! :-)

Overall, an outstanding MOC. Great job!!!

Live it up, -sb
