(...) Hi JP Thanks for the Moc, I like the bulky forward part; it's actually a little too big for the model, but the rounded edges balances that (I can't help thinking retro "'60ties rounded edges refrigiator"-style ;-)): If that's the engine then (...)

(...) JP, This fighter is very nice, and holds well onto Soren's theme and style- specifically in developing very innovative fighter designs. This one is no exception and looks really nice. I like the addition of the pirate flag.. it gives it a (...) (20 years ago, 11-Jul-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) Thanks Niels! I can raise the pilot a little bit, but his head won't fit in the canopy. Even trying as high as possible, his eyes would still be to low... Cheers, JP. (20 years ago, 12-Jul-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

I want it to have a pirate flag on the other side, though, given that the rest of the ship is symetrical, I want that bit to be as well. It'd be cool if the hull opened (...)

(...) I know, and the grille in front would be in the way anyway, but at least we would be able to see that there actually were somebody in there, and the pilot would be able to see more stars.

(...) Thanks Daniel! Oh I'd like to have one more flag as well! But I won't buy 2 4+ pirate sets to get this.... one was enough (the coconut tree is one part :-()...! (...) Yep, you're right! I'd like to incorporate some "storage" for all the (...) (20 years ago, 12-Jul-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) Wow is this nice. I don't even want to think what the internal structue is like to get the SNOT to line up so seamlessly. The style of both yours and Soren's are truly food for thought. Now if there was only some way to hinge that canopy ;) (...) (20 years ago, 12-Jul-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
