Thanks. That's what I was going for. I figured, that the bare necessities
are all that's required - and that's what he got.

I tried making the engine beleiveable. After seeing a couple of specials on
PBS about modern military aircraft, I realized just how much of the aircraft
itself is dedicated to propulsion. I figured it would carry over to
spacecraft as well.

No problem. I tend to build a lot with black which 1) tends to make a craft
monochromatic. and 2) is hard to photograph. Neither of which is very good.
I felt good about getting the just working the blue in. It's one of the
areas where I know I need improvement.
