Melpomene is both the 100th model gallery on my site and my first SHIP over 100 studs. She is a passenger transport crewed by 9 women and adapted to their particular needs. She cruises the spacelanes, looking for pirates to bring to justice.

(You’ve already seen her if you’ve looked at the SPACE sidebar in the last couple of days- thanks, Lenny!)




She features a fully-detailed interior, with shower and powder rooms, a kitchen, and crew berths for 9. Melpomene also has 5 small support vehicles. Oh, yeah- and big honkin’ engines!



The crew of Melpomene utilize a unique weapon- their voices. They sing with such beauty that they can mesmerize their opponents into letting down their guard. Much of the equipment is designed around delivering sound to the enemy and enhancing its effectiveness. If you enjoy reading that sort of ranting about a Lego ship, there’s more on the Crew and Backstory page.

(...) Awesome, you finished her! I vividly recall ogling the ship during NWBC, and listening to your description. I'm glad you finished her and posted. Great work! Kelly (20 years ago, 4-May-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)
