This is fantastic ! I love absolutly everything about it ! Even the thing where it's posed on is absolutly awesome ! It kinda looks like a sabre from halo reach ! hah ! Stunninngly amazing ! I'd like to fly one a these ! 5/5 :)

Excellent flow design! Maybe I´ll do something similar in the future :)

There's so much going on with this MOC. Loads of great greebling, splitting in two functionality, good greebling, shwoosable shape, gorgeous greebling, nice cockpit opening design and some grand greebling. I agree with your daughter: the little clear bits on the fronts of the engines just add that bit of interest, without being distracting. Excellent work!

5 out of 5 on this one! I just cant get over all the neat features and detail - great job! I look forward to your other spacecraft!

Nifty and nice at every angle! Sorry I missed this when it was 1st posted! :)

This one is just perfect! The "full" ship is clearly inspirated from SW, but looks so great! And I really love the ship without wings, so much details in there! Great job!

Brilliant design!

I never made the connection, but I guess you're right. Glad you like it.

very nice! this looks a lot like palpatine's episode III shuttle. 5/5

This is really sweet! Love the details here.

Excellent Lines, colour choices and features: greebles add the perfect detail to finish it all off!

Shape, details, greebling, idea ... everything is just the way I like it. I'm deeply impressed.

Wonderful build. I love the playability and the details you have. I also am a huge fane of original ships rather than recreations. I am going to add you as a favorite so I don’t miss anything else!

Thanks! That was one of my motivators for creating the carrier. It was an idea that I had when I had nearly finished the Prowler.

Glad you like the greebles. I was starting to feel as though it were overgreebled, and when I started to feel that it was overgreebled, I decided to just cover it in greebles, so I greebled more. Yeah, I like greebles.

Looks awesome! Nice playability!

My mind is blown! I actually really like all of the greebles, and even with all the greebling, the ship still manages to stay nice and flowy. And, of course, the breakaway function is insanely awesome!

Excellent ship! Just the right amount of greebles :) Your daughter was right - the use of the 1x1's was a great idea :)

Thanks. Glad you like it. I'm of the school of thought that greebles take a MOC from a smart design to a great build.

Thanks for the comments. And when it comes to LEGO, my daughter is 5, so I have nothing on her when it comes to imagination. I should probably take her advice from time to time;)

I love the whole concept! Great job.

This is awesome! Personally if the shape looks good i think you can not have too many greebles. I tend to do that allot but tried to restrain from my latest spacecraft (please take a look and tell me what you think). back to your build, i just love it! happy building! :D

Okay. Guess I'll have to start over now.

Nice. But I think it definitely needs some more greebles. :P

Wow. Thanks. That's quite a compliment. Lots of nice ships out there. Big fan of your ghost of Elvis MOC during the MA, by the way.

One of the best small-ish ships I've seen for a long while, great work!

Thanks as always, Jon. I'm always glad to find out if you like what I'm up to. I'm really enjoying watching the progress on your SHIP. How soon before it gets posted for real?

Great concept, and beautifully executed. I like 'chunky' ships like this, and this is definitely a new favourite. The seamless fit and locking mechanism top off a 5* MOC. More please!

Thanks!

It's amazing the lengths I go to make my own OCD happy;) Thanks for the comment.

Thanks a lot. I'm glad it gives that impression, it was the mission in mind.

She's 5 and wants to take Star Wars movies on long trips. Brings a tear to this old man's eye.

awesome!

This is excellent work! Perfect symmetry (which makes my ocd happy) and a detailed and carefully designed interior and exterior...this obviously was built with the attention to details that marks a good builder...well done

thats really impressive! good work how the two parts fits together! they seems like one...

Your daughter clearly is well-educated about science fiction! What a good call on adding the 1 x 1! Anyway, I never cease to be impressed by your greebled starships!

Wow! Never would have guessed it was two-part MOC! Great technique.

Hey Mr. Tim? I know a dude, and he's feeling really bad about his creations right now cause they got only a few likes. Could you please just visit his home page and coment on a few MOCs please? Thank you! Here is the link to his page. http://www.mocpages.com/home.php/77596

Thanks for the advice. I will play with those settings some more and see if I can't get any improvement for my next build.

Thanks. I appreciate the comment, especially from someone who has such a diverse range of talent when it comes to building.

Thank you for the comment. As I said in the description, this one was all about the details. Really glad you like it.

Thanks for the comment. Also for being the first to acknowledge the comic genius of Monty Python. I was beginning to think that my reference was too subtle...know what I mean? Nudge, nudge, snap, snap, grin, grin, wink, wink, say no more. Also, I have absolutely no experience with Halo, so it was not an inspiration.

Thanks. It was a casual mention, should I have stressed it more? ;)

Thanks a lot. It was a fun and frustrating...(funstrating?) build. Glad you like it.

Thanks a lot, David. I always like hearing what you have to say. I can only hope that I improve with each build, so if this is a leap forward, then things are going the way they should. I put no time at all into designing these MOCs; they just kind of evolve as I build. I'm sure that costs me a lot of time. And I was at work all day today, so I missed its run on the front page. Bummer.

Yeah, I agree. I love seeing all the great creations in the MocAthalon, but it's not my thing. I can't build fast enough and if you looked at my page, you saw that sci-fi is just what I do, (not to say I won't branch out at some point). So, I just sit back, take my time, and build my spaceships. Thanks for the comment.

Thanks. And it is fun to fly around the house, though there isn't much to hold on to, so it's always a little scary that it will drop and become a pile of plastic on my floor.

For the grainy pics - Turn the ISO setting all the way down on your camera if you can. Also, some cameras just suck at photographing dark things so they produce all that noise/grain in shaded areas.

Thanks. I appreciate your comments. I've discovered that I really like using the stand for my ships rather than stressing over landing gear. Glad you like it.

great look, lots of details, extra functionality, and demonstrates technical proficiency. 5/5 in my book.

Greeble,spam,eggs,spam and greeble, eggs, greebles, greebles and sp and spam. No, we don't do it without greebles.(Monty python). Kinda reminds me of the unsc prowler out of halo legends.

sweet build! did you mention something about greebles?

Cool beans! I like the carrier splitting away function.

Great work, I like it!

Congratulations you've made it to the front page - really well deserved!

I've been looking forward to seeing something new from you, and this is just great. A real leap forward from your last MOCs I think. The coherence of he modelling is fab. This looks like a seriously designed model.

Awesome build and very timely too. There are so many great MOCs in the MA2012, but I have been hurtin' for some good old fashion space & military type stuff- even better when it is well-done.

Excellent. I love the shape of the total build, I've always been a fan of backwards wings, very neat. The fact that it can split into two crafts is really neat also! Looks like it would be a fun set to fly around the house.

This is one intense ship! I really like the separation feature and the fine detailing. On another note, the stand is very solid a clean! Awesome work overall!

Thanks. I always appreciate your comments. Don't sell yourself short, though. Your MOCs are fantastic, and you and I build a lot of the same type of ships. I'm sure you could do something at least as good as this.

Thanks a lot.

Wow I wish I could create something like this... I'm going to build another spacecraft that might just be one-tenth as good as this...

Killer!

work has been killing me lately so the most I've been able to do is create and destroy a dragon head. I've been trying to create a cool dragon for a few weeks but lack parts and inspiration. I think I'm going to have to go back to my first love and create some more space ships.

Thanks a lot Daniel. This one took me a while, and in trying to fit all the greebling into the little nooks, it became the most annoying MOC I've done yet. But I am pretty thrilled with how it turned out. Glad you like it, too. I haven't seen anything new from you since you made my skin crawl with that devil beast spider you built. Any irons in the fire?

Wow, Tim! You really outdid yourself. This is absolutely incredible. My jaw was already on the floor and then came the 'watch the parts in the circles'. I love it. Excellent work. Oh, yeah, I'm also jealous.
