It's a design unlike anything believe I've seen around here. There's a nice array of weaponry and I like the side by side cockpits, especially. The silhouette is very good, too. Nice and narrow from the side and the front. I would have to think it would be quite difficult to visually spot in space, though a wing over might just be a bit dangerous as wide as it is. ;) The only point that I don't really prefer, is the landing gear. After being chastised by Grand Admiral Muffin Head over using similar gear on my freighter, I've crossed lines to join the ranks that prefer the click hinges for gear. If you haven't looked at them, here are some examples with click hinge gear from Mark's inventory of ships (I'd use mine, but his are so much cooler) -- http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=2671 http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=2153 http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=1564 (this freighter has another idea for gear) Keep up the good work Shawn!

Here are some picture links: (3 URLs) Unfortunately, they're all detail shots, and the ship is upside down. The basic idea is to put together (...)

Hello All, I called this MOC “Dual Pilot Fighter Plane”. I should probably work harder on naming my creations.
