I'm up for it if I can borrow a digital camera and then throw up a site. The
problem is my ship might not be done right away. Its already a year and a
half in the making..although it could probably be done (on the outside) in
about a month. I'd love to just enter kind of unofficially if I could. I
still need to finish certain sections of the hull, the rose windows, the
bridge and the drive system in back (this section finally came to me while I
was dozing off the other night)..then put on some details and tweak the
flying butresses a bit and I should be finished with the exterior.
