| | New MOC: "Paveway" Missile Boat Mladen Pejic
|
| | (URL) Click on Image This MOC was greatly inspired by the Gunstar (Mark Sandlin did a wicked model of it a while back, I was *so* jealous :-D) from the movie "The Last Starfighter". A lot of other influences are in this model also. Basically, I (...) (21 years ago, 27-Aug-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build, lugnet.announce.moc, FTX)

| | | | That's really really cool. I like the mecha-style idea of having a ship with such a wonderful collection of toys, a bit like buying action figures and vehicles and getting all the guns and missiles. The pendulum cockpit with roll bar is great as (...) (21 years ago, 27-Aug-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| | | | | (...) Thanks William! (...) Thanks again. I'm really obsessed with the rounded bar piece; it's just so cool. I use it whenever I build a black MOC. :-D (...) Mmm... I love dark grey, and would have definitely used it in this model, however a lot of (...) (21 years ago, 28-Aug-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

You could even make an electronic countermeasures variant if you really wanted to get nutty. I'm not all that fond of the red with (...) (21 years ago, 27-Aug-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

The red pods are in my mind the more likely places for ECMs. (...) I know what you mean. I (...) (21 years ago, 28-Aug-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

Maybe just one or the other. Eh. And big huge kudos on the (...) (21 years ago, 27-Aug-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

Your usual groovy colour scheme. Other than the reconfigurable weapons loadout, My (...) (21 years ago, 28-Aug-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| | | | Thank you Mladen, I've been pondering how to make a rotating bubble cockpit for some gunner stations on a space B-52 bomber ship. Your solution is very cool. I agree with Mark though on the red and yellow, it's not my favorite color combination. (...) (21 years ago, 30-Aug-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

The radiation generated by a nuclear detonation will release much energy in the visual spectrum, unprotected eyes could easily be blinded by such explosions (it's exactly akin to looking directly at the sun while in space).
