Hi all,

yes, I have been quiet...been busy with SciBrick stuff and a few other things, but I built a shuttle for my sigfig, good ol’ .space paparazzi!

and here it is:



and the folder:

This is a short-range shuttle used by the Paparazzi to get to those places where there is need of a person who has a particularly nosy camera:)

SP is a freelancer by trade, and is highly regarded by some, disregarded by others. Such is his life, tho, and he wouldn’t have it any other way!

And if you’re wondering about him having just a shuttle....there’s going to be more. Really!

PLMKWYT!

Joe Meno .space paparazzi!

Just passin' through before goin' home and saw this... Joe it's really groovy. Now don't be landin' near PCSLabs... any leaks to the press and you get a SCRAM missle right up yer thrusters. (URL) Admiral Giddens <>< (URL) space. (21 years ago, 21-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) I knew there was a good .space use for those 4x4 SW ball joints!! Very nice shuttle, IM-un-space-educated-O. Nice and compact, and it has a certain shape to it that appeals to me for some reason. ~Mike (21 years ago, 22-Oct-03, to lugnet.space)
  Re: .Space Paparazzi's got a ship!
 
(...) Very nice, Joe. Cute, compact and with some bumpy bits on top which go really well. Does the camera swivel? I think it would be a cooler feature if it did. Or maybe a detachable camera drone. And landing gear. ;-) Cheers, (URL) Sci-Fi LEGO> (21 years ago, 22-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
  Re: .Space Paparazzi's got a ship!
 
(...) I like everything about this ship, but you're not exactly stretching yourself with it are you? ;) Anyway, this sort of thing is fun to play with more than anything - I expect it sits very comfortably in the hand, and none of the bits are prone (...)

  Re: .Space Paparazzi's got a ship!
 
This is pretty cool, I like the shape. Does the back open? It looks like there is a hatch with a hinge, but I could be wrong. I like the color scheme. I'm a little worried that your sig-fig seems to have the same face as mine, though, I think TLC (...) (21 years ago, 22-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
  Re: .Space Paparazzi's got a ship!
 
Hehehe...cool concept! But I guess this is an cheaper/older paparazzi ship...a camera that can neither tilt or rotate??? GRIN More please...more Bas (21 years ago, 22-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
  Re: .Space Paparazzi's got a ship!
 
(...) This is a lot of fun Joe....and I imagine more complex to build than it's shape tells. I often find that with all the pushing we do to ourselves here to discover new and as yet unseen element combinations, it becomes more difficult to build (...)

  Re: .Space Paparazzi's got a ship!
 
(...) Hey, I like it! I really like the shape and it looks like it could fit in the palm of your hand! However, I think there are too many colors, maybe if you change the black canopy with a smoke one? Great work! (URL) (21 years ago, 22-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
  Re: .Space Paparazzi's got a ship!
 
(...) something about this one really appeals to me. the light grey w/ the red/white schema, perhaps. can't really put my finger on it, but this is a nice little MOC. clever concept, too -paul (21 years ago, 22-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
  SP's got some new stuff!-was Re: .Space Paparazzi's got a ship!
 
After a few comments about the non-rotating camera (which I did consider on the top but found it looked clunky), I took the suggestions and made some additions to the shuttle. I didn't want anything that was 'permanent,' so these are essentially (...) (21 years ago, 22-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
  Re: .Space Paparazzi's got a ship!
 
(...) Mr .space paparazzi - I love it. Saw this last night and really could not stop admiring it. Swooshable and compact, sleek and neen. I have to agree with Gil about finding novel build combinations, as I find myself doing a lot, that "This is an (...) (21 years ago, 22-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
  Re: .Space Paparazzi's got a ship!
 
(...) Great ship, Joe! Very cool idea, too. There are enough fighters around in .space, but not nearly enough brave men to report their actions! Love, Sylvi. (21 years ago, 23-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
