Thanks a lot for you kind words Tony,
...As for your comment about the vibe of this project being un-Star Warsish,
well, I made these creation according to my own EU story that takes place 13
years after the Battle of Endor..
And when Lucas presented the new Trilogy, the elemnts were too smoothie looking
for the standard Original Trilogy..
So I figured my stuff would go all the way in the other direction.. Being
greeblie and industrious (which is also my favorite building style).. I guess if
you spend sometime looking at that stuff, you might see the Star Warsy vibe in
them..
Again, thanks for you feedback..
Joseph
