Thanks. They're the latest twinned Ferris Mk III thrusters with fully integrated Q-Injectors. Hopefully the Cheetah hull can take the strain of those two beauties firing at full throttle.
Back to the original ships now, with the Moray Star Boat up next...

Also very cool! . The ship and the naval engines. Question. Are you modeling a whole own version of the original shipset or do you model the ships you like and mix them with a few of your own designs and release that as a separate oxp?
Love to see them textured too!

They'll probably let you have a tonne of cuddly toys just for visiting the showroom ...

Those ships are amazing, right on commander!

Textures will probably take me a while!
just had a thought, for some textures you could set up a competition "who can texture this the best", there hasn't been a competition in ages.

Didn't we have the Alien Items book cover comp two weeks ago? (although that theoretically ran for over a year)

Heh... I just pulled into Maraus, checked the shipyard, and found
nineteen Ferdies for sale... and one Anaconda!
That reminds me of when I lived in Hong Kong. If you bought a local paper and went to the used car section, it was full of hundreds of Mercades Benz. Almost no other cars at all. Very strange.
