hey, Mark! Its nice to see you introduce yourself. With a spiffy MOC, as well. The StarBrewer is a cool ship- the basic shape is cool, and I really like how you executed some of the parts. The front especially is very nice, the cockpit, the side (...) (22 years ago, 22-Nov-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
