(...) Wow- thanks a ton! The SNOT construction was an integral design choice because otherwise I'd have to tile a huge surface below the canopy and this seemed much cleaner. The implementation turned out to be a lot more work, but it did pay off. (...) (22 years ago, 27-Mar-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

Very nice Jason. Between that and Junkbot I can see you've been using your time very well :) I have one question.

Very nice. The cockpit is my favorite part. With the shape and colors, it looks like it would be at home underwater too. David (22 years ago, 26-Mar-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) The blue 1x3x12 wedges really give the fuselage a nice smooth shape that blends well from the nose to the "wings". I really was aiming for a very P-38 like design, but not exactly like a P-38. I am happy with the way it turned out. (...) Not (...) (22 years ago, 26-Mar-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

In the wake of Jason's ultracool Discovery MOC, I'm reminded of a LEGO film version of (at least part of) 2001. A quick search proved unsucessful for me, but I'm sure that one of my savvy LUGNET pals can find it easily. Thanks for the help! Dave! (22 years ago, 26-Mar-04, to lugnet.space)

(...) OK, now that I think about it, I don't think the ship in 2001 carried the Roman numeral I. I may be mistaken, but hey, it's the only flaw I can find to pick at...
