  Re: EBKD Korolev
 
Looks amazing Rick! You did a fantastic job with this spacecraft. I like all the weapons and greebles on the outside. The bridge design by far is my fav. part of this ship. I think the only think you can do to make it better is smooth-out the (...) (20 years ago, 27-Aug-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
 
  Re: EBKD Korolev
 
(...) Hey, I like some parts of this ship alot. I think the overall shape is pretty cool, and I like the mass of antennas, guns, etc. that protrude from the front. As you can tell from my one capship, I am a fan of bridge towers. The huge engine (...) (20 years ago, 27-Aug-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
 
  Re: EBKD Korolev
 
(...) Rick, What a cool ship! I like the hint of familiar, but clearly your own design. The overall form and function seem to fit flawlessly. And I'd disagree with the first two posters about gaps and tiling the sides. I like the armored look that (...) (20 years ago, 28-Aug-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
 
  Re: EBKD Korolev
 
(...) I gotta agree, I like that armored plate look too. Looks like she can stand to take a few hits. (...) Darn Lego brick shortage. Too many times I have had to sacrifice elegant color design for lack of resources. But, I don't thing that a (...) (20 years ago, 28-Aug-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
 
  Re: EBKD Korolev
 
(...) Thanks! And that was only a second resort after I couldnt get the original shape to work. :) (...) Yeah, but I don't like the look of smooth ships, But the gaps did need to be filled up. The way the ship is angled, it prevents the 2xN sections (...) (20 years ago, 28-Aug-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
 
  Re: EBKD Korolev
 
(...) Yeah, I forgot about those pesky missiles in design, Soren broguht it up. I also am a fan of bridge towers, ranging from full flying bridges to the armored barely sticking out kind. I based the protrude on front off the Sulaco of Aliens fame. (...) (20 years ago, 28-Aug-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
 
  Re: EBKD Korolev
 
(...) Thanks. :) I do have a style of my own, don't I. ;-) (...) Never thought about it that way, the fact it does look armored because of those facts. Nice thoughts on vacu-forming. :) (...) I wanted contrast, and black didn't look right.while (...) (20 years ago, 28-Aug-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
 
  Re: EBKD Korolev
 
(...) Yar. Armored is the idea. Vangaurd and it's big ole guns? bah. Three Korolev class frigates can take it down no sweat. (...) Very minor limitations, like tiles or something. Not much. Elegant color design: that stripe was completely (...) (20 years ago, 28-Aug-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
 
  Re: EBKD Korolev
 
(...) The Korolev looks just like I would expect an Eastern Block frigate to look--kudos on hitting the theme really well. I really like the weapons array on the front, too. Not such a big fan of the thruster outlet, it just isn't nozzle-y enough (...) (20 years ago, 29-Aug-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
 
  Re: EBKD Korolev
 
The red gear did not go undetected. The Eastern-Reich Treaty of 04, and ships like the Korolev, we'll carve up the galaxy like Poland in 39'. As for the Korolev, I think its true to the EB theme, and the much maligned gaps don't trouble me at all. (...) (20 years ago, 29-Aug-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
 
  Re: EBKD Korolev
 
Overall a great ship! I love the bridge design with its navalish look to it. I also wil agree with a few of the other posters on the gaps and spaces- it gives the ship an armored look that was present during the high period of the Soviet era. I do (...)

  Re: EBKD Korolev
 
(...) Thanks Keith. It's nice to know that the Eastern-Reich treaty is still strong and firm. With help from the ground power of the Reich, we can carve up all the galaxy. ;) Thanks for the things about the gaps and front. It's what I was aiming (...) (20 years ago, 29-Aug-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
 
  Re: EBKD Korolev
 
(...) Thanks. I wanted the armored look from the begining, and forgot that the Soviet era had those style things. Plus, the thruster pack is going to be redesigned, i don't know how yet, either with cones, your suggestion, or something else. Thanks (...) (20 years ago, 29-Aug-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
 
  Re: EBKD Korolev
 
(...) Yay! I got it to look like Eastern Block! :) (...) Thanks. Due to the size of the ship, interior pics are kinda lacking without gutting the whole ship open like a fish. When I take it apart in the future i might get beter interior pics. Rick (20 years ago, 29-Aug-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
