But how did you get that antenna to stick to the underside?

Wow, that resembles the Orion quite closely. I really need to give that Technic Sathanas a shot sometime. ;)

Take a technic half-pin (IE, bump on one side, technic pin on the other) and insert the pin end into the ?x2 brick, through one of the center cylinders. This gives you a center mounted bump on the bottom of a brick. Attach the lever/antenna bit et voila.

I built a Fenris cruiser, and it's 17 studs long, I was gonna build an Aten cruiser to go with it, but my HD fried and I lost what little I had of it, luckily I uploaded my Fenris to Brickshelf.com, I'll get the link, and all those who have MLcad can dl my version of it!

http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=5523

there it is, I'm also gonna build an Orion, on the same scale, about 200+ studs long! :nod: yes 200+ STUDS LONG.

Man, and after that, I might have to build a Lucy to match it, maybe even a Typhon too!! Maybe, just wait and see :)

I did everything in MLCAD, so I just flipped the gun and placed it there.  Nothing is holding it on by code.

Unless there's some fancy piece I missed, you can't actually do that, something that bums me out to no end.  Once I get the stuff together, I'll try something else, probably a Leviathan.  I like the little cruiser.

Look up, Eishtmo. I pointed out a perfect way to attach that antenna down there with real Legos.

Hm, I really gotta find my old Legos... It's way better to build the real models than to work on the CAD program...
Probably away. Contact through email.

I downloaded MCLAD on sunday and have thought about how to make a lego Diemos, but im still trying to work out MCLAD itself.  I aim for it to be about 50 studs long, 1 stud per 12 meters of ship.
But ofcourse, thats a medium/long term project.

I notice a lot of you using "Legos" as a plural of "lego", I thought you would like to know that lego is a collective noun, like sheep, fish etc. So the plural would be the same as the singular.

Don't mind me, but if I don't complain about something at least ten times a day I will start to like things and have no agresseion.
