hmm...I myself have made quite a few of the star wars gunships. I really like your design. I think that it would help to take a look at mine for future ideas. I'm not saying that your's is bad, because it is quite good. But i used some interesting peices for one of mine, and another one, i build out of i believe it was the 2004 mellinieum falcon :) good luck on the 2nd version, can't wait to see it :) and remember to have fun when you're building.

interesting.....
