| (...) Nope, that's a BIG MOC. Hi Trevor, I like the color scheme you used for this dropship, even if some might say it's to "McDonaldish" (red and yellow). It's the second time I see a cargo / drop ship with entire floor of the cargo area being the (...) (20 years ago, 25-Nov-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) Well, that's a new comment! :^) All of my offline comments regarding the coloring scheme have been positive. But thanks, none-the-less! I was aiming for crisp lines, sort of like the Cosmic Dancer (URL), where not a lot of greeblies is needed, (...) (20 years ago, 25-Nov-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| "We're in the pipe! Five by five!" Dude, I feel the badass spirit of the "Aliens" dropship all over this baby. Thick, sleek, and no-nonsense! I really like the minimal greebling and color scheme, it lets you focus more on the lines of the ship. Dave (20 years ago, 25-Nov-04, to lugnet.space)

Besides, the Fire Warrior craft is primarily yellow with (...) (20 years ago, 25-Nov-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) No no, don't worry I have no problem with the color scheme, I think it's really fine. It's just that I remember maybe one or two years ago, a ship from Mladen Pagic was using massive red and yellow coloring, which can seem a little strange for (...)

I can see where you are going with the colours...blocking them in (...) (20 years ago, 26-Nov-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

That's what the big yellow (soon to be red) intake vanes on the front are FOR. :) This design has dual spamcake plasma drives (exo-atmospheric) and conventional scramjets (endo-atmospheric), both of which utilize the same thrust nozzles.

Come now, that would suggest that I would have to had to purposely postion the seats off to the side to ensure a vehicle never touches an obstruction, as well as provide features for securing a vehicle inside the cargo hold.
