Re: Building the Wasp in 3d

Well here's pic of some more of the top deck, I decided to make the wings
"workable" by the crew...otherwise why would you NEED crew for
maneuverability, hm? ;)
So they can be rotated by the crew using capstans.

LOL...the Hornet was sorta inspired by various sports
shirts with a diving hornet, stinger forward (almost
impossible with a real hornet).  It does have a huge
hinge so the tail can swing. :)

I like the looks of the wasp, but the interior is just
baffling.  Its like its missing a deck both below the
main deck and above it (under the ballista area). 
Still can't figure the purpose of the decks next that
"rollbar" :p  The deckplans don't do it justice, I
think.

<shrug> Guess its not much worse than the MoW & its
tail joined by a narrow joint. :p
