Thanks Jonathan - I'm happy to get some feedback on it since I really was a bit
unsure lately whether this behemoth was worth all the time and effort. But maybe
I will finally get it finished (with all the fine-tuning that is) to show it on
a suitable event here in Germany. It's certainly way too large to take it
someplace else...

I wish TLG made sand blue/sand green/teal technic bricks. That would be sweet.
In my neck of the woods these types of bridges are typically painted in a muted,
sand like color, if not gray.

Actually, sand red and dark gray would have matched the original colors quite
well.

As for teal, I find I've acquired a couple of old Cybermaster sets just for the
parts - but I couldn't yet figure out a stable construction using these studless
technic bricks/liftarms - in terms of color it would certainly be interesting.

Color aside, excellent bridge.

Thanks a lot,

Jerry
