Wow, that's pretty cool.

First of all, I'm glad to hear that you (and the bricks) are okay following your
car crash.

As someone else mentioned, the mech-suit is very cool.

On the 3/4 view of the ship I see what looks like a small depression near the
nose--what do you envision that to represent?

A nice ship overall, that's for sure.  Any chance we might see brighter
pictures?

Thanks for sharing!

Dave!
