Gil,

I really like the body design. I’ve abandoned a lot spacecraft builds in the past, that morphed from “cool cockpit” to “cockpit + thin body + engines/boosters”. Your SPR-71 tells me it can be accomplished; I never thought the thin neck body could be pulled off without looking chunky.

I’m surprised this didn’t end up as the Cobra Raven under the B.I. Joe umbrella....

Many thanks Nick! I wasn’t quite sure how the goose neck would turn out either, but I think the snot’ted on black tiling visually gives in enough weight to work somewhat. TLC’s wonderous long tapered slopes of the past 3 years have done excellent things for longer shapes as well.

You definately have to do some larger ships m’man. Your small stuff is great...would love to see it on a slightly larger scale.

Cobra Raven? What’s that...heh-heh..he..hm.yes....move along. Nothing to see here. :)

Cheers, -Gil
