Marvelous design, very evocative of the Sulaco from "Aliens" in that it looks built for practical use, not aesthetics. Very nice. Love the mini-ships. I really like the patchwork appearance, like it's been modified constantly. Dave Mark Sandlin (...) (24 years ago, 11-Nov-00, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build)
