Oh, you can't see it but there are turbines I took off of a transport plane in the model.

Also: My dad was so inspired by the design that he is importing it into Ldraw, so that plans and building instructions can be made.

That reminds me of a Colonial Viper

That was the basis for the design, but I couldn't get the wings to angle properly.

Nice job on that fighter. I also build lego sets but I am much better at things like tanks and troop carriers than aircraft.

You could have tried a studs not up approach to the wings.

That looks nifty. At first I thought the color scheme was random, but I like the symmetry.

I need to take pics of my best stuff. I have some really nice fighters with uniform color schemes that I want to show off.

Never! Besides- what is one to do when the internet is broken if you don't have Legos?
