A NON-ENTRY EXAMPLE

  http://www.lugnet.com/~1/LittleShip/

I won't enter this, but I hope it can serve as an example.  I think it
captures the style of the other three ships pretty well, but it also "cheats"
a bit and uses at least 3 elements which didn't exist in 1979.  One is the
2x2.5x2 box with door at the stern of the ship, the other two are the 4x4
trans-yellow hinged roof entry to the cockpit and the 1x4 plate hinge that
it attaches to.  (There might be others...I forget.)

You also used the newer 3x3 wing bits.  I don't know exactly when they came
out, but they certainly were much later than 1979.

Ahhh, yes....  OK.  Thanks!


Not to pick your design apart, of course.

No, please do!  I invite it!  It might help someone else come up with a
similar design that's more accurate.


I have done some variants of
those ships as well, and I don't recall any that were terribly convincing.
Perhaps that's where I'll start building...

It sure was a lot of fun!
