The interior of the living area sports a small kitchenette with storage • for
provision and a combined prep station and sanitation area.

hope that clears things up

i use an epson photo pc 850z with a 5 light set up two for the front at
offset angles. two for the underneath from the side.  and a single light on
the rear of the muslin.  my muslins are paper from the art store.  i set my
camera on a custom white balance to compensate for the color of the bulbs.
I then use photoshop to bring out the gamma of the darker bricks. and use
save for web jpg and adjust the quality setting depending on the image...
usually i use max or high.  I want to know what Jon Palmer uses?  his photos
kill mine!

thanks for the propers

Cool, cool, cool.  That is one fine MOC.

I love the execution of this- from the curving back with it's original
exhaust thingies to the cluttered interior.  Wow.

I, among others, have also had the side-ways cockpit idea floating around
but never used it. :)

Now I must ask the eternal question:  where's the toilet?  :)

The photography is excellent, too.  What was your setup?

The interior is just SO cool.  My gavorite is that column picture.. all
those greeblies and computor terminals hanging from every concievable • place
really give this the crampted freighter look.

The massive offset power plants are milled from our newly developed
Duplonium© alloy.  In testing, the these twin monsters devoured the • Leggel
Run in the blistering speed of 11.5 larsecs.  With a full load of  4

Our wrap around bridge encircles the captain and crew consisting of a • single
droid. The payload bay environmental controls and monitors (sorry, out of
sight) are located in the front of the bridge area adjacent to the bay to
the right of the newly designed virtual helm navigation systems which are
positioned in front of the main portal. The life support systems are • located
aft on the port side, and the engine controls are opposite in the • starboard
rear.

The interior of the living area sports a small kitchenette with storage • for
provision and a combined prep station and sanitation area.  Opposite this
are captains sleeping quarters.  And the convex main hatch is located
directly between the two of the starboard side.

The enormous payload bay features a massive top hatch for large freight • that
requires a crane while smaller items on palettes can be remove via the
vaulted front hatch.  The bay itself is lined with an electromagnet • palette
casting system that move palettes in and out of  the cargo area with • little
friction and no pulling or pushing equipment, saving the ship from the
weight of a mechanical roller system and simultaneously securing the
palettes securely to the bay.

So next time your thinking you need something somewhere far, in • something
fast.  Think Extraglobal Starmaster Service.
