And I’d disagree with the first two posters about gaps and tiling the sides.
I like the armored look that the studs give it. Besides, if there are no
studs and no gaps, you could just vacu-form it from poly-styrene and save a
bunch of money right? We build with LEGO bricks for a reason.

I gotta agree, I like that armored plate look too. Looks like she can stand to
take a few hits.

What I DO think you could change if you chose was your number of neutral
colors. I really like the overall grey/red color scheme. And a few other
neutrals are ok. The white bits REALLY stand out though and seem disconnected
from the otherwise military EB look. There are a couple of spots I noticed
where a thin line of black changes to dark grey or light grey. Perhaps this
is due to limited piece, and that’s a challenge I certainly still struggle
with at home. I’ve always found that color schemes work best with one or two
‘colors’, one shade of grey(including white), and black- especially if black
is inset or represents exposed functional components. But that’s just me.

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 problem appears here on
this ship.

What you have is an excellent ship with a great line, especially the front
greebles and the bridge profile. You handle building a large ship well, and
are at least one up on me in that regard. Oh, and Classic Firemen torsos will
always be welcome in .space.

Ditto, love the bridge tower.
I responded to this posting cause I was short on time, and AMS said a lot of
what I wanted to say, so I just added a “here, here”.
