Hi, Samarth. This is the coolest thing I've seen highlighted out of .space in a while. I really like the design and imaginitiveness here. I'm always a fan of working in bizarre "useless" parts into cool creations, and you've succeeded here both with (...)

(...) The scoop is a bit goofy, but it sets the spirit of the model well. We're all here to have fun, right? Beyond that, the ship design is good. While the nozzles are nothing to write home about, the engine mounting and other detailing is (...) (20 years ago, 6-Jun-05, to lugnet.space, lugnet.underground, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) Great color scheme. You've balanced out the base and highlight colors nicely. I was surprised at the scale- until I counted the studs, I didn't realize quite how large it was. And the interior looks pretty roomy. Nice! As others have pointed (...) (20 years ago, 6-Jun-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

So the other day I was playing around with the scoop from the Pneumatic Front End Loader: [LEGOSet 8464] And realised how useless it was, considering I had never used it after I had torn the set down years ago. So (naturally) I thought I'd make a (...) (20 years ago, 5-Jun-05, to lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.space, lugnet.underground, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX) !!

Thanks for the comments! Just a note: the green on the ship is actually just regular green: the lighting made it look darker, I suppose. I don't even own any dark green pieces ;) Also, yes, I put the pilot's chair on hinges, mainly so that it raises (...) (20 years ago, 5-Jun-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

Most excellent swooshableness, Ian! The SNOT work is top-notch all-around, especially on the nose (hyuk!) and the wings. Great color combo too. Only problem is you have way too much dark green! You need to pack up the excess and send it to me (...) (20 years ago, 4-Jun-05, to lugnet.space)

(...) Hey there, Ian, For a model that uses so little SNOT construction, the Hawkeye has a very nice shape. It's good to be reminded that SNOT is a means to an end, not an end in itself. I also like the unusual color scheme. Am I right in observing (...) (20 years ago, 4-Jun-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)
