The bottom looks good and the bottom section of the actual station. However, I
think the top section is far to square and flat... Nothing seems to be
happening. The interior is quite good except for the fact that a huge section
of it is empty. To me it just seems strange to have the bedrooms so cramped
when you have all that spare space. On your mocpages site you said, 'By the
time the comm signals actual reach the planet, they have grown much fainter,
thus requiring the comm station to amplify and relay them to the planet below.'
This does not seem realistic looking at this model. All they seem to have is
equipment for a TV and perhaps satelite TV as well. The blank and boring top of
this model would be a good place to put a huge satelite dish. I see that there
are no pictures of the interior of the lower section. I that because you
couldn't get to it? It would be good if you made the model in a way that could
be deconstructed.
Sorry if I sounded very harsh in that last paragraph, but I'm one these people
who feels that I should say what the model actually is like (not necessarily
what the builder wants to hear), regardless of the age of the builder, using
constructive criticisms. Anyway, I'm 14 as well, so it's not as if I'm looking
at your model and thinking, 'that's good for someone 20 years younger than me.'
I really do like the bottom half of your MOC, some great SNOT techniques and a
satisfying outcome. I know you've taken it apart now, but I were you to do it
again, I'd say to heavily modify the top, or totally rebuild it, particularly on
the side with the window.
