Blast! You discovered my dirty secret. Yes its true that the freighter can
only hold one of the containers. (and even then I suppose the pilot would
have to crawl over the container ot use the toilet. : ) The reason for this
is because I originally made these containers (8 in all) for and didn't plan
for Grimlock to carry them-Bardiel --I'd like to make about 20 or so to fill
Bardiel's cargo hold one day--When I'd done a little work on the freighter I
realised that they would fit inside so I figured why not. I added some more
stuff so in the end I could only fit one. I was going to make some more pods
just for this ship and if I do I'll post them.

These are the mid sections from 2 old pirate ships. The Black Seas Baracuda
and The Caribbian Clipper in this case.

Thank you very much. I know a lot of people hate it but I really love Alien
Resurection. Check out a couple of the director, JeanPierre Jeunet's other
movies: Delicatessen and The City of lost children. I actually noticed my
ship looked like the Betty after building it for a bit. If you haven't seen
it yet check out Felix Greco's Ship Scuttle but which also has kind of a
"Betty" look.
