As others have mentioned, the color scheme is great- you pull off the
randomized brown/greyscale color mixing far better than Lego does.  In fact,
it actually looks like it is supposed to be that way on this thing (yes,
that's a dig at the official SW sets and their color "schemes").

Nice detailing all over, especially on the top of the cab.

Thanks! I think brown can be really cool for space creations. I really
like to use the log pieces to represent exposed layers of metal.

Um, and... what kind of camera do you use?  Those images are crystal clear,
even though the surroundings seem to imply non-ideal lighting.  And are you
shooting at a much higher resolution and then reducing the images?

I'm using a Sony Cybershot DSC 50. (story time: I bought my parents a
Mavica FD95 online for $750  for christmas. Didn't think it was right
for them and I tried to return it to Best Buy. They don't carry it so
I go to Comp USA and returned it there for $1000. With the store
credit I bought a DSC 30 for them and a DSC 50 for me ...I know I know
but they won't even use theirs.... My change was 6 cents.)
You were right aout the poor lighting. Just a 60 watt bulb. I took the
pics close up with the Macro function with the flash on the low
setting. The first 4 pics were shot at 1600x1200 and then reduced. The
rest were just shot at 640x480.
I like this camera a lot. Even under these conditions it takes good
pictures. With good lighting it looks even better. And the 640x480
pics (the camera's lowest quality) even look good.
