Tony,
I really like this ship... its refreshing to see a moc using mostly “old school”
building techniques & pieces. I like the idea of doing retro-nostalgia inspired
MOCs. I think it would be fun to do modern interpretations of the classic
spaceships (918, 924, 928) that retain the basic form and function of the
original designs while using some modern piece types, colors and building
techniques. Maybe that could be an idea for a new building contest.
My only real nit is that a lighter colored canopy would probably have worked
better with the lt/dk gray color schemes. To bad both of those pieces are not
available in trans-clear or trans-lt-blue.
I really like you landing skid implementation. I think they look pretty cool
fixed in the “extended” position. Not sure if I like the thruster for this
particular application though (though I like the design of the thruster in and
of itself). The “complex” nature of the thruster seems to clash a bit with the
relatively simple lines of the rest of the design.
Thanks for sharing,
drc

| Here is the Space Wagon, sort of an update to the (URL) 918 Space Transport>. It is basically the same overall size and shape, but features a more powerful thruster, folding wings and landing gear, and larger crew and cargo areas. (5 URLs) I'd like (...)
