Thanks for all of the encouragement! Like I said, it was a quick and fun project.
I hear you Jim about the gun mount. I decided to keep it on after hemming and hawing for an hour or so. I kept putting it on and taking it off, but ultimately decided to add it because it sort of reminded me of the Photon Torpedo tubes on the Reliant and I put a decent scratch into the plastic when I removed the mounts to begin with...
To be honest, the second reason played more than the first, I just didnt wan to fix the scratch up. Normally it wouldnt bother me too much, but since it was sufficiently deep and right on top, I went with the mount...
