I tried to scale down the design of my last MOC, the Pinpoint, to come up with
an entry for the one-man category in the Military Hover contest. The result is
the Shuriken (so-named because it comes flying in real fast to cause hurt):
At a length of 20 studs, I was thinking it would squeak in to the one-man
category, but its 17 stud width exceeds the 10 stud maximum. Actually, I think
at least two of the current entries are also wider than 10 studs, so I’ll leave
elligibility up to the judges.
The design was not terribly parts intensive, so I did a few other versions in
different colors, with some design variations:
Click either pic for the gallery, or go to the
mocpages entry for more verbiage.
PLMKWYT. I’d actually like specific feedback, if you don’t mind, on a couple
items:
1. Which color scheme did you like best? (If you didn’t like any of them, let
me know that too)
2. Can anyone offer suggestions on how to improve the guns?
Thanks!

| (...) Awsome mocs! may personal favorite is the bluish one. I like the look of the yellow one a lot but as you said on your mocpages page, it doesn't look right for a military craft.
