W-transport

My father being a civil engineer firmly imprinted the importance of reinforcement in every model (which I cannot stress enough). This model is an excellent demonstration of this concept. The thick walls make it unnecessary to add reinforcing plates on the cargo floor.

This model is called the W-transport(water transport because it has the capability of landing in water). Ok, I admit it, I had no idea what to call it. On this model there are several turrets which can pivot in all directions. The cockpit is well detailed and the cargo space is cavernous (this is the biggest I have ever created). It can accomodate almost any other lego model I have made. There is even a section for missiles and a secret compartment!

My inspiration for this is the Millenium Falcon and the cavernous hangars of Star Wars but for some reason, I don't think my model captures the glory and grandeur of its role models. Maybe this is because my model looks like a cigar with a bow and stern (and a battering ram :D). However, I am very proud of the fact that any point on a sphere around my model can be targeted by its lasers...very Star Destroyer-like.
