Big Sal Posted August 21, 2016 Posted August 21, 2016 M.A.N.T.I.S. mechanic Lyra Zema didn't know much about boats. But she figured they couldn't be much different from the spaceships she spent all day repairing at work. So she built the Stickleback. Some people said it looked too much like a spaceship. Some people got punched in the face. M.A.N.T.I.S. mechanic Lyra Zema didn't know much about accepting constructive criticism. Thanks for reading! Rendered using bublible's SunFlow MOD v20160717.

Professor Thaum Posted August 21, 2016 Posted August 21, 2016 (edited) Some people said it looked too much like a spaceship. Some people got punched in the face. M.A.N.T.I.S. mechanic Lyra Zema didn't know much about accepting constructive criticism. Well, is a really really nice boat, looking sharply like a boat, the designer must be a great naval architect. I can hardly believe my eyes for she captured the very nature of the boat spirit... Moreover, this boat could be worth the name of "BOAT" instead of stickleback... is it OK as an impartial comment ? I feared it was a little bit like a very obsequious cringer... so she could realize and even so punch me in the face. Edited August 21, 2016 by Professor Thaum Quote

Big Sal Posted August 22, 2016 Author Posted August 22, 2016 Yeah, needed to get this done on Sunday morning but didn't want to wake up the wife by rustling through real bricks Quote
Professor Thaum Posted August 22, 2016 Posted August 22, 2016 (edited) looks like a real MOC, the software is great in rending the photographic reality... I will carefully check your link and get this for testing (even if I strongly prefer the real bricks, I use LDD for big MOC for getting the whole pieces list before order on bricklink) Edited August 22, 2016 by Professor Thaum Quote
Dannylonglegs Posted September 7, 2016 Posted September 7, 2016 Really nice boat, Sal! Very interesting design choice! The spikes are great, and the pontoons are well constructed. Looks like it could go underwater and re-emerge underneath opposing boats! ~Insectoid Aristocrat Quote
