hi guys. i suppose this is a response to all the posts. first off, thanks a
lot for the comments and suggestions :).

mark and mark- i did use a stud-to-foot ratio for this (nice job in

anything that could be measured in trying to perfect the ship. i had
schematics, models, model pictures and screenshots; almost everything of the
ship. i think it helped
i just see minifigs as being... vertically challenged ;)

carey- thanks for the suggestions. i did tilt the wings (i should have done
it from the start, it was easier, and more importantly, accurate. i also
made the vent as best i could: the torpedo launcher hole is a bit

and yes, i will do a "weathered" version. thanks for reminding me, i got too

               Adios,

Hey, I really like how you got the basic shape of the hull down, it is very accurate. I agree with some other posts I saw, with all the sculpting you did, it would be very easy to introduce some color modulation, some greys and even tans perhaps, (...)
