(...) Thanks Kenn! At first when building this MOC I was only using white and greys. Later I tryed to throw in some color bits. I tryed mixing some yellow and dark red on the hull, but I didn't like it. The easy way to do it was to separate these (...) (20 years ago, 10-Mar-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) Thanks Jason! About the bend in the front: I didn't try to fill the gap between the 2 parts because I want it to be able to open. I guess that's why it's not looking as "clean" as it could. For the engines, they are the part of that MOC I (...) (20 years ago, 10-Mar-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

The gun is good looking, and the MOC overall does a great job of forming an interesting shape without being too parts (...) (20 years ago, 9-Mar-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) Ouch, that play on words is almost painful. Seriously though, thanks for your comments. The details and characters were indeed fun, though some of the construction became very unwieldy. I'm glad to have posted it, at any rate. Kenn (20 years ago, 9-Mar-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

Hey Samarth! This is one nice model! I especially like the multitude of details, also the mechanized tools.
