Fantastic ship; the form, colors & style are all well thought out. The
interior is superb; efficient, but not to small rooms & 4-wide beds. I like
seeing 4-wide beds, as 2-wide really doesn't support the whole mini-fig; I
imagine they get tired of holding their arms up while trying to sleep :) All
the systems & access are well thought out & you even included a vey good
shuttlepod (any interior & pics for the shuttle?) Overall, fantastic job. I'd
personally like to see engine cowling, so the guts aren't as easily accesible to
the fleebnorks; also in a future refit, maybe add a sloped hull to the front
mess and science labs. It works fine as it is now since it is a converted
freighter, but after the initial mission, the Beagle's mission profile may be
expanded, so a refit will be in order ;)

| (...) Thanks! 2-wide bunks bug me too. Minifigs are bigger than that, and if you're building to a 1 stud/foot scale (as I do), 2 studs = 2 feet = a very narrow bed. Mine are actually 3 studs wide, which seems about right. I doubt there will be any (...) (21 years ago, 4-Dec-03, to lugnet.space)
