Wow!!! Way to go Adrian! I was blown away when I saw the initial pics from Brickfest and I've been eagerly awaiting the official post from the builder. As always, great presentation. This MOC just kicks a** in every posible way. Not only is it epic (...) (21 years ago, 24-Aug-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

It's uncanny how you read my mind. I have had in my head for some time now a shuttle-type ship with a panoramic canopy for unobstructed downward visibility, but limited upward/rearward visibility. It would be utilitiarian in nature, used in an (...) (21 years ago, 24-Aug-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) This did turn out to be quite the playable little set. And it's swooshable! It is quite sturdily put together.

(...) When building a vessel that is this shape (long and skinny with a rounded front) it's quite difficult to avoid comparisons to the Discovery from 2001, so I just accept them. It wasn't my intent to copy that design, it just sort of worked out (...) (21 years ago, 24-Aug-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) Yup, I'm a sneaky little one, aren't I? I started working on this project in November of last year, so a fair portion of the ship was completed before my son was born. Getting the rest done proved tricky, though. Adrian (21 years ago, 24-Aug-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
