SSJ2 Dark Posted August 14, 2015 Posted August 14, 2015 Awesome, I think the hammock might be my favorite detail! Quote
knight_40k Posted August 14, 2015 Posted August 14, 2015 Agreed, the hammock is the icing on the cake. Quote
lightningtiger Posted August 14, 2015 Posted August 14, 2015 I like the rope gun idea 'greg3', very clever indeed. Brick On ! Quote
