Thanks. Before this I had been wanting to do a whole array of ships inspired
by aquatic animals. I still want to do the Hammerhead Shark capital ship
though. ;)

This one is actually my favorite. Prolly need to see it in person to
appreciate all the sculpting that I put into it. Also, I'm a speed freak so
I'm sure that has something to do with it. :D

Whoa, that's purrty cool. I wanted to use the fins on mine but couldn't find
a place that looked 'natural'. I LOVE the sand blue color! It's much more
usefull than light blue IMO.
