Thank you all for your kind comments! You seemed to "get" most of what I
intended with this MOC (well actually, you all commented on the things
but the Grand Admiral was the only one to clearly state my exact
thoughts: big landing gears for heavy loads, each company has its own
system for the storage pods ;-) ).

Very nice. I had a conversation at Brickfest with Travis about how there

a lot of civilian or non-violent MOCs. I suppose the excitement level is
potentially lower on a non-violent MOC, but I can always appreciate a good

I've always liked big civilian machines. While I do enjoy the programs
about military machines aired on Discovery, nothing'll glue my eyes to
the screen like "The world's largest cranes/excavators/oil rigs/tanker

things which captures my mind.

Building civilian also gives you a lot more options, IMO. Military MOCs
tend to focus on just one thing ;-)

It's been a while since I touched my LEGO bricks, but this summer, when I had no homework to worry about, I built my first serious MOC for a year, or perhaps more. It turned out to be my largest spaceship yet (60 studs in length). Read all about it, (...) (21 years ago, 24-Aug-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.loc.se, lugnet.announce.moc)
