| (...) Mark, this is another fine MOC from you. I like the sleek shape, that is augmented greatly by the use of those curved slopes. The engines look, IMO, perfect for such a craft too. The colour scheme is also good. However, I'm just a little (...) (21 years ago, 31-Aug-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| hey, its nice ot see you getting into new styles, but I think this moc is well... not so good. It looks very aircraft like, which I personally try to avoid with .space suff. Also the fore section is so huge, couldn't you have made it more sleek? And (...) (21 years ago, 31-Aug-03, to lugnet.space)

| (...) Thanks Mladen. I remember you once saying that a MOC tends to look best when it uses only 3 colors: Base, Secondary, and Highlight. I agree with you about that, so I try to apply that process when possible. :) (...) Heh. Well, it's a craft (...) (21 years ago, 31-Aug-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

PS, I agree with you and Mladen about use of primary/secondary/accent colors (three colors). That principle holds with buildings as well as (...) (21 years ago, 31-Aug-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

I hurriedly coined a term shapes-juxtaposed, as in the craft's form is composed of separate (...) (21 years ago, 1-Sep-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) I don't know. With a name like SPLASH I expected Daryl Hannah to be flying it. Awesome shape and style though. I'm glad to see PCS being moved in new directions at supersonic speeds. I saw in another post that you were going for an SR-71/PCS (...) (21 years ago, 2-Sep-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
