I was giving one of my organizers a much-needed organizing and came across this little ship from long ago: (URL) always did like the design. It's approx. 42mm wide at the rear and 15mm high. Cockpit 10mm wide, 10mm tall. The rear rudders/stabilizers (...) (22 years ago, 4-Dec-03, to lugnet.build, lugnet.space)
