What do you mean insult? I meant the four people on HLP who use SU (Me, Blowfish, Bryon, Spectre) are not complete idiots.

Ahem back on Topic shall we?  :D

I do hope to see this ship completed someday soon. I'm well aware your very busy and I'll wait patiently while my brain explodes from the stress.  :D
Got Shivans? The SOC Ezechiel is the schnitzel! Don't leave base without it.

If I wasn't on vacation I'd moderate the heck out of this thread, but I am so you're lucky for now.

I spent some time redoing the Colossal neck in the airport, and during downtime at my grandparents'. There is now an inner, greebled neck underneath the outer ribs, and you should be able to fly through it with no problems. (Actually it's only about 35% greebled right now, but you get the idea.)

Don't like it. Makes the collie look even more flimsy than usual.

That's... traditionally what the original Colossus model was trying to do though wasn't it?

Last I remembered triangles were the strongest structural form next to circles.

Not a grid tube within a grid tube. The neck is way thinner in this configuration. The original didn't have holes in the neck.

I would imagine the original didn't have holes in the neck because at the time the game was made, such detail would have jacked up the polys to levels computers of the day would have choked on any time the collie showed up.
