Superb job Paul! The ships is beautifully streamlined and well designed. I
really thought that the interior space would be small, but wow, was I ever
wrong! ;-) You managed to fit everything a space crew would need to survive
during their long, (boring) voyage. Again, great job!
BTW you obviously haven't been studying your 50s sci-fi, otherwise you would
have surely known that every space-faring ship can't be complete without an
alien (a.k.a. really cheap actor, wearing a cheesy rubber costume) to terrorize
the crew? ;-)
<being sarcastic>
Oh, and thanks for making the pictures black & white pictures; I started
humming the _Lost in Space_ theme uncontrollably! ;-) - "Damn sci-fi channel,
why do I hate it so much, but still continue watching it?!"
Mladen Pejic, over and out!
