unfortunatly tjhe boxines is due to my lack of technic plates and slopes, to get it looking how i would truly want it would take a briklingorder larger than one of rocs, and unfortunatly im on a strapped budget for right now so unless the local lego store has some nice stuff on the discount shelf or enough slopes to choke on in the pickabriksection a more rounded hodgeposgeis not in local making for the next month, that and im totally out of any hinge type parts at the moment.

anyhow the boxiness is mainly due to the huge flight deck and how tallthey needed to be to house the fighters, originally it was going to be more flat, that and isnce its built out of 2x1 bloks they must interlink or else it will fall apart, as it is its getting stress fractures especially in the rear were thier isn't as much internal reinforcement mainly because i wanted a huge area for the airlock hatches to either side

You've got so much cool stuff, but it consistently hurts my eyes, and my brain.
Hey I never said that!! A random smashed together amalgamated mass of rainbow is the stuff from which BrikWars was born -- random-assed, chaotic looking forces clashing together in juniorized rampages is how we all started playing with Lego!!
