I declare that to be officially neat-o. I’m particularly fond of the use of the

The Red Herring is a compact, clean design. Good use of unusual elements, and
I’m always favorably disposed to smaller spacecraft MOCs. Nice whooshability,
and it even has a sort of retro-ish 1950’s rocketship feel to it.
Thanks for sharing!
Dave!
