   As always, stunning work--that *whole* thing is a tug?!?
   Or a freighter?  I'm a little confused.

   I can see where the UCS X-Wing parts have gone, and plenty of
   pieces from the Giant Robot set.  Grey and yellow don't usually
   work together--makes things look like Vogon rejects--but in this
   case you've resisted the temptation to turn it into a yellow-
   jacket from Space.  Only one thing mars the ship (here it comes)
   and that's the UFO decals...ugh.  If I buy you a can of Brasso,
   will you put it to use?  ;)

   One other thought is that the engine cluster (the three cylinders)
   are a bit too uniform; might it help if they're varied, somehow
   made more asymmetrical?  It would complement the general asymmetry
   of that after section very well, IMHO--you've pulled off the half-
   disc look perfectly, UFO decals notwithstanding.

   in splendid admiration,
