Thanks! You’re absolutely right. To be honest it was absolutely ridiculous how
much time I spent trying to get things just right on the reactor. The spine
sections are a whole other story. The initial design for them was one of the
first things I did and I carried it through pretty much to the end (obliviously
happy with them for probably a year). And then, just after getting the last
bricklink order to finish them I’m looking at the pretty much complete ship and
thinking, ‘you know what, I really don’t like them that way’. Aaaagghhhh! New
bricklink orders were needed, the stand had to be rebuilt because the spacing
between the sections changed as well. It’s pretty humorous looking back at it.

Those pods are extremely cute, however. Sorry, they just are.

Yeah, I have to agree.

Really, this is a wonderful piece of work; will we see it in
person at BrickFest?
|
You bet!
Thanks,
J
