Hey all!

I just got done taking pictures and uploading them on Brickshelf of my new space
MOC, IRONCLAD Space Frigate.

Some of you may be wondering what I mean by IRONCLAD.

Well, after coming back from BF04 I was inspired to make my own space theme.
(Kinda like 3vil or PCS) So after awhile I started construction on my new space
theme.

I asked Patrick Morgan to make this for me Smile

This is the flag for the IRONCLAD's.

Ok, onto the Space Frigate.

After getting a few design flaws out of the way I started construction.
(Hopfully i'll be able to mass-produce the Frigate)

This is the front of the Frigate, You can see the four barrel ION cannons on the
top and bottem of the Frigate.

There are four quad-lazers sitting on top of each fin, three of them can fire at
the same time at any direction at any time, if they are firing infront or behind
them then all four of them can fire at the sametime.

The inside is small but the men don't seem to mind, there are only two tables
that are usely used for sleeping or eating on them. Everything is opened up.

If you are wondering what those round shaped things are with the red tops. those
are the torpedo's, one Frigate is allowed to have six of them on board with only
six charges. The charges are separated from the torpedo's incase the Frigate was
hit in those areas, it would not explode, blowing up the whole ship.

(...) Well the obvious comment is that it looks a lot like Lenny's EB ship. I think it looks like you have a decent start to a ship, but the large expanses of plain flat panels just looks a bit unfinished. Try adding some slopes on the sides that (...) (20 years ago, 2-Dec-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) Well, these guys will be a little utilitarian won't they? I like the basic shape, it does seem to suit the name well, but I agree with Mark, David and Tony that the plates "o" studs takes a little away, But I think that it would be a bit (...) (20 years ago, 2-Dec-04, to lugnet.space)
