These are both very nice. The canopies are well done, and the interiors are
beautiful. I'd like a few more exterior shots, though, like the rear and more
detail on the engine pods.
The Earwig has some great texturing and shaping on the sides, but the Flea is a
bit lacking in this area. Its side walls are a bit bland, though that's not
exactly inconsistent with the concept.
It is nice to see more near-future stuff. These are much more grounded in
reality than much of what we see.

I can't wait! Perhaps we'll see the exteriors better and the prongs in action.
