Mark, I really like that cockpit design you have. The elevated position of the rear pilot (gunner?) reminds me of the seating arrangement of the Apache gunship - not that this ship has to be a military MOC. Good use of the elevated space provided by (...) (22 years ago, 8-Mar-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) That is so not what I expected to see as the first use of those scoops on a Space MOC. I figured it was only a matter of time before these particular pieces got used for something, but that they'd end up being used as walker legs, or landing (...)

For ST that's a big shuttle. If you want to build a "true" (...) (22 years ago, 7-Mar-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

Very well done indeed. You seem to have brought a distinct Steamrunner class look to the P-38 contest. Warp engines are notoriously hard to build convincing LEGO versions of, but yours are incredible. I also like the manner in which the cockpit (...) (22 years ago, 7-Mar-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
