Yeah, definitely the contests help snap me back into action. I've had a
couple of very slow projects going, but finally I'm back into things. The
Ice Planet contest did the same for me a couple years back.
It's buildable in real life, in the colors shown except for the grey 1x2
tile with grill pattern. I was certain those existed, but I just checked
and aparrently they don't. I do have it assembled here at home, but a few
of the colors aren't right and also I don't have a digital cam, so there's
no way to get pictures into the computer.
