I likes it! ...Actually I think your use of non-tire engines is impressive.
I too love the tire-engine and hub-engine concept, but it has been used a
lot. Another thing I like about this ship is that it has two decks even
though from the first picture it doesn’t appear that big. I see you have
also been adding more greebling - very nice!

I have been surprised in the past at just what an art form greebling is; I
learned this the hard way when trying to do greebling in the past. Bit by bit
I shall do more and more greebling until I can greeble competently.

I once wrote an
article on
greebling, that is now hosted over at classic-space. Perhaps it can be of use
to you? Still, what you have there looks like a great beginning!
On to the ship. I think it has plenty of merits - the engine pods look pretty
good, and you have some nice detailing. My two biggest problems with it is that
it pretty much looks like a box in places, and that it is generally very hard to
get a good impression of it due to the quality of the photography. To adress the
first problem - well, keep on building, and try to experiment with some
interesting shapes, perhaps on a smaller scale. As for the photography - what
kind of camera do you use? It looks like you either use a very low-res camera or
compress the images too hard.
Here are
some good photography tips and tricks if you have the patience to read a bit :-)
Anyway, keep at it! You’ve got a great start here - looking forward to see what
you’ll come up with in the future!
