Surak MkII Spaceship

Name of Model: SNOT SHIP - Surak MkII
Created by: psyop
Found at: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=286086
Details:
When you get to a certain size of wall made out of 1x2 bricks, you get to have a bit of flexibility that doesn't seem like it should really be there. You can kind of cheat the regular geometry of LEGO® bricks and make things curve a bit. Naturally, making that wall longer will eventually make it possible to make a wall in the shape of a circle. If you're really skilled with this sort of thing, apparently it's possible to brace a large circle well enough to make a sturdy and impressive large spaceship. This exceptional model also uses some more studs-not-on-top parts to make all of the edges of the longer part smooth.
