Hey sweet!
The whole thing feels really tight, I like that. The shape is really cool and
like Gil said, the twin booms are really nicely incorporated.
Nice landing gear too, and the guns are sweet.
Cool stuff,

First off, I hope all you .spacers out there enjoyed your weekends, and I
wish you have a productive week.
This has been a busy weekend for me. On Friday afternoon I kicked myself out
of my post-PDX funk and set myself a goal: build at least two entries for
the P-38 contest.
Here’s the first product of a weekend of work, what I envision a Cylon P-38
Lightning would look like:

What started
off as
a completely original moc soon became much more. As I was showing off the
early work to some of the big kahunas, Adrian Drake pointed out that it
looked sort of
like a Cylon Raider from Battlestar Galactica. Well, I was inspired by that
remark, and after
a couple
more tests with the shape of the ship, I zipped quickly through construction
until I completed the model early Sunday morning (2 a.m... I swore I would
not sleep until I finished it!)
It was originally grey w/ dark grey highlights, but during construction the
ship really cried out for some color, and after deciding against the original
colors and stripes of the P-38 I went with dark blue, out of personal taste.
Please let me know what you think! I’m interested in any and all
comments/criticism about the ship! I learned a lot of things about building
while at PDX, and put a couple techniques to use here (g-snot made most of it
possible.)
