I often choose form before function with my creations.I like to pop some
pieces on because I think they might look cool and then later think about
what they might do. I'm really going for a cluttered look with this ship but
I believe it will be balanced out in the end. I kind of envisioned a smooth
hull (although heavily patched up) that is broken here and there with detail
and technical stuff.

I most certainly do remember you and I had that awesome ship bookmarked
untill my computer crashed. I also recall you saying you were gonna build an
even bigger one in the future.

It is about 7 feet long and it is also very hard to photograph. I will
hopefully upgrade picture quality as the ship and site develop.

That is actually something I was planning on doing with a few of the
better pictures. I also considered one picture with a background of blue sky
and big white clouds because I thought it would be different to show this
fairly dark ship decending on a peaceful setting.

I have to put in a ship docking area and a ground vehicle bay in the
front cylinder and an engineering section near the rear starboard area, and
some walls and airlocks on the cylinders and...and a lot of other stuff.
Heh. Hopefully when I'm done with the exterior I will be able to make the
interior look good. Oh and when I'm done the ship will probably stay built
for quite a while.

Good question but the answer is a confident no. : ) I usually do a lot
of work in short bursts every week or so but lately have been doing some
work everyday in my spare time.
Thanks for the comments!
