This creation started with no preconceived idea. I started playing with that piece I like so much – piece 30303 which, I’ve discovered, is officially named “Plate 6 x 6 x 2/3 Cross with Dome”. I started putting them together in different configurations, looking for inspiration. Eventually, it started looking like a spacecraft. I attached a windscreen and a couple of engines. I formed two goals as I went along: to keep the profile as low as possible, and to avoid smooth, flat sides.
With the amount of exposed elements this thing has, I realized it wouldn’t be practical for space travel. So, instead, it has become a planetskimmer: a fast and sleek hovercraft for commuting around distant planet colonies. I am fond of this build.
