(...) I don't know who it was, but it wasn't me. San Jose is a little out of the way for me (about 6-7 hours out of the way actually). On another note though, I like the MOC's. I really like the red ship. It looks very sleek, I may have to steal (...) (24 years ago, 12-Dec-00, to lugnet.starwars)

Hey all! In a flash of inspiration, i realized that one MOC i have never seen is the Cygnus X-1 Assault gunboat from Star Wars. It's been featured in a lot of games, and some of the books even mention it. Unfortunately, i only have one fuzzy picture (...) (24 years ago, 12-Dec-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.space)
