Gah. Wow. Jinkies, even. This is some serious mad brick skillz, Ryan.
Absolutely gorgeous-ugly. This is a perfect fit for the Matrix universe.

Chris, thanks for the compliments. :) All I wanted to do was make a ship that
would look good alongside mocs like Nebuchadnezzar. Guess I’ve succeeded. :)

The exterior: awesome usage of that sweet visor technique. The weapons and
sensors are well done, and the overall shape is very pleasing in a grotesque
sort of way. :-) The only thing I don’t like is that TIE windscreen. That
has to be on my least favorite piece top 10 list. I think it’s too tacky for
something this cool.
|
For some reason, I never planned on using the TIE screen in mocs, but I had
absolutely no qualms about using it here. Probably because Adrian used it so
well, and it makes for a nice round cockpit shape.

The interior: you’ve made the icky bottoms of plates beautiful. Absolutely
incredible greebling with the ladder railings and the gunner’s stations and
the cockpit interior and the “engineering” section and..and..
|
And..and..and twins! Okay maybe not :p I’ve told a couple friends how much fun
it was to spend the last few days doing the greebling and details, so it’s fun
to see that people like them.

Now this is class act. I’m way too much of a pansy to show off my concept
designs, because I’m a perfectionist. But it’s really cool to see the
evolution of a design.
|
It’s kind of weird because most of my more extreme designs were completely
impractical, and I didn’t even take pics of them because they looked so bad. A
few of my designs were of the “house of plates” variety, but in the end its a
model made almost entirely of brick.

You scare me, Wood. And I want this thing to have my children.
|
And with comments like that, dude, you scare me! :p
