It has a rather strange shape for a spacecraft, but the shape is quite well accomplished.

Great looking fighter, the shape goes beyond conventional thinking for Lego. Nice.

Structually, it seems fragile. Creativity: By the Lego Overlords it is astounding!
Firepower: Not enough for me. I would've stuck a mini mac cannon in there.

Suprisingly enough, that should actually be pretty damn strong! The pieces in the wing are each held in place at all of their stud points, and it looks like friction keeps the shape from bending.

Excellent idea, and I'll probably try it myself one of these days

Yea, they used those 1x1 cylinders like they do in castle MOCs, making that curved shape.

I saw this earlier on Brother Brick.
