I started construction of this ship in January (or maybe it was
Decemeber, I don't remember which) of 2003, it took about 7 more months
for me to finish the model. Eventually, it came out to more than 6 feet
long, and weighed in at about 40 pounds. At maximum, it was about 240
studs long, 36 studs wide, and 40 bricks high. This was actually a
microfig ship, albeit a larger-than-average one.

That's huge!  Where do you get all the bricks?

It's also pretty neat.  I like the stuff on the top, although it does look a
little sparse on such a huge vessal.  But my main complaint is that the sides
are too straight and plain- from the top it looks like somebody took an axe and
lopped off the side.  But you said you will address that in your new moc.  Can't
wait to see it!

Pity it wasn't minifig scale.  One of the fun parts of building such large ships
is outfitting the inside...

Can't wait to see more...
