I'd wait to see it in better light befo re making a decision..
I'm afraid if you saw it in a bright daylight you would never buy it. Let's see if I can get a climpse of if in the ship yard. There it's much harder to hide unpleasant things like thorougly corrosed hull.
The poor thing must have spent a lot of time in atmosphere to end up looking like that!
Most games have some sort of paddling-pool-and-water-wings beginning to ease you in: Oolite takes the rather more Darwinian approach of heaving you straight into the ocean, often with a brick or two in your pockets for luck. ~ Disembodied
Experimenting with materials and finally getting the rusty look I'm after. A better view of a rusty Griff Adder. Rusty Griff Ships are on their way .
Cool. I love Griff's ships, but always thought that they look too good in a realistic Ooniverse. What happens to the old ships? There should be all sorts in various conditions.

Maybe you could start a Kickstarter Campaign to found your £4500 pledge.
Thanks to Gimi, I got an eBook in my inbox tonight (31st May 2014 - Release of Elite Reclamation)!
Wondered the same thing myself for a long time.. finally I concluded it had to be the humid, oxygen-rich atmosphere in the Station docking bays and the occasional planetary landing that do the damage.

Well I'll be damned.. time to start coating my Pitviper in gold, by the looks of things.

About the rusties: I see that they are ships that have seen a lot of action, made a lot of planet falls and such. Then they have just been abandoned to some desolate scrapyard. One day some shady second hand dealer comes, buys the wreck, makes it move again and tags it with a price tag so low that some sucker will eventually buy it.
