It's not a C because of the dk. blue beams running up and down. Amazing. Razz

(last but not least, I added two humble hyperdrive engines)

With all removable parts removed

How the cockpit fits and is removed

Enjoy.

Pretty good - the added dark blue makes it look much better than last time.

But I think you could have done the gap better around the cannon:

You should use wedges instead of tiles to make it look less jagged.

You mean the overhang left by the beam, or something else? If you could 'note' it on Flickr I'd be able to see it clearly. Smile

No, the dblue 2x2 tiles.

It's okay, but it's too jagged overall. I'd move the missile rack a 3 studs down or something, it just doesn't look like it would fly well.

Ah, that tiling. What do you mean 'wedges'? Cheese slopes?

Three studs down? That would make it look like a fat man with an even fatter waist and hips. Surprised

It's not bad, but it could use some work. As Alpha said it is too jagged and I think that there are too many wholes. Looks sort of messy and I would try to fix it up.

I stated my opinion, I even gave Alpha credit for what he said. Just saying what I think needs fixed. But i'll add more just to make you happy.

1. I think that there needs to be more around the cannon, it look sort of out in the open and it needs something more protective to make it looks strong.
2. I also think that the cannon needs to be less boxy.
3. Add more dark blue tiles to the long dark blue piece, this way it looks more filled in.

There, I stated what I think needs fixed.

1. I think that there needs to be more around the cannon, it look sort of out in the open and it needs something more protective to make it looks strong. 'Out in the open' I already put an entire rigging around the cannon. Laughing
2. I also think that the cannon needs to be less boxy. OK, now your bout is with TLC's piece-shaping. The piece is shaped like an octagon. I can't help if that's your idea of boxy.
3. Add more dark blue tiles to the long dark blue piece, this way it looks more filled in. Hmph.

There, I stated what I think needs fixed.

Last thing you said was that it looks 'sort of messy'. How? Is it just the cannons? Since when do cannons define a ship's shippiness? Razz

No 80, move the missiles horizantally, so the edge of the Vulture Droid piece is-ah, nevermind.

Move it back so the side of the bar is parallel to the rack.

They aren't missiles, first off.

Second, why should they be so far back?

This is a far better version of your first entry, 80-0. Splendid design, nifty housing for the cannons, and a very frightening jail cell (only a few inches of transperisteel between the victim and the vacume of space Shocked ), all in a nice, soothing blue.

If horror rides became a national industry you could be sure they'd get a space ship up there doing that. Laughing
