Hi Chris Keep the models flowing, they’re getting better and better! You have some nice details going on with this one, but there’s a couple of things that bothers me: First of all it seems awfully thin around the cockpit (the cockpit takes a big (...) (21 years ago, 6-Oct-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

Masterpiece! I love the transparent stuff in the cockpit and the quality of the greeble is simply marvellous, but I think you should consider some odd angles to break up the 90 degree look: Perhaps turning the wingsection by 45 degrees? Anyways, (...) (21 years ago, 5-Oct-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

The only problem is that Lego is built here on Earth, which has gravity (in case you hadn't noticed), and you have to make sure your models are pretty strong and have a strong mount to have them mounted sideways on anything.

Nice mech, Andrew! Ingenious name, by the way. I love the legs. They seem very sturdy, are they? The use of both new and old gray gives it a kind of 'been in a wreck but has been fixed' persona. Making me think it has survived many a battle, which (...) (21 years ago, 5-Oct-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space)

The thing about space is that you don't always have to have everything be vertical. Since the Jormungand is really tall, mount it sideways in the carrier. You could just make the launch bay Zero-G and build it sideways. The SNOT might be difficult (...) (21 years ago, 5-Oct-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
