Thanks a lot Kyle!

The reason for the upside down studs in the nose is that I simply did not have enough inverted slopes to do the underside of the nose, and not enough dark gray slopes to do the to of the nose either. So, I simply inverted a section of 6 studs in the nose. Sometimes lack o parts can really boost creativity.


Those transblue bits are.. err.. emergency reverse thrusters? Fire extinguishers? Well, I did not think they were worth mentioning really. There used to be two standard star wars cannons (that part is over-used as a weapon, IMHO) sticking out of the front of the engines. However, I didn’t think that looked very good after a while, so I removed them.
