Yeah, it looks pretty solid and very realistic. I like the fact that you
considered playability too! :) I'm always "whooshing" stuff around, looking
at it from all angles and making sound effects (until my wife walks in and
starts shaking her head like I'm insane).

Hmmm, I dunno, from what I've seen I think you could easily come up with

work as you go along and one idea leads to the next. I really think my stuff
looks like more than what it really is because of the big baseplates.
