Thanks!
Yes, I'm a bit behind on the whole greebling thing. I had several ideas during
the building process, but in the end, none of it flowed together well enough and
I had to make the thing "clean". The hoses on top were an improvisation,
actually, because I couldn't find another wheel-thing to put in that piece of
machinery. Serendipity strikes again! My next MOC is going to be more greebled
than the Hrunting.
Landing gear was actually in the original plans, but as the hull evolved, there
wasn't enough room for it. I did make several prototypes, but none of them were
satisfactory (too bulky, not flexible, etc). Any suggestions on making decent
landing gear?
Thanks for the reply--I'm actually surprised to get a reply in this sea of
messages about the Pander Hunter, the Beach-related topic, etc. It's hard to
learn when you don't get critiques!
