Mandrake7062: Your Eagle turned out fine too. I'm not saying anything about mine until it's finished - I have plenty of time to mess it up! I've been watching some early episodes of Space 1999 and the 1st Eagle looks a lot more basic in terms of painting so that will hopefully make things easier. What I've decided to do with the passenger pod is to UV map it so that texturing the red striped rescue pod colour scheme is made more simple.
