Thanks for the input guys, here's my pass at the 'nurnie' on the underside, using the picture above as a template. Technically I suppose it's a nurnie as it has a function, no matter how spurious. Greebles are more your common or garden simple boxes stuck to models to give surface detail, rather than more intricate detail performing a specific function. I wonder who thinks this crap up? Anyway...

Prahaps it's a physical computer interface and transmitter for instructions to the warpsled when the ship's not joined.

I'm sure it's marked on the plans I got sent as a sensor cluster, but quite frankly it could be the quantum flux capacitor or 2 bits off a TIE fighter for all the difference it makes. The main thing is that the model is now all the more accurate for the input. [Smile]

It's the ship's mandatory, obvious, and easy to use, Self Destruct Mechanism.

Indeed. The TMP Blueprints call it a Sensor Array.

Someone's been shopping at a certain supervillain supply website. [Wink]
