I like that image a lot. It's a great moment to capture. I had a go at adding some motion blur onto it, but not sure if it really adds anything extra:
Also, as for the Cobra in the Planet Paradise picture, yeah I realise now it's way too small. (Did you notice, it's actually the DW Cobra I did for Oolite).
My Anaconda is in the background on the Civil War picture too.

I think someone asked how the pictures are created. It's all digital. I use a tablet and pen along with Corel Painter.

Ooo that's pretty, I tried to just motion blur the ship as the camara is static (not sure it worked) anyway I'm sure we could put together a station interior relatively easily.

AAHH! Feet vs metres! AAAAH! First person to "correctly" resize the cobra gets their nuts removed.

in fact lave, do you have an idea of any particular part of the station interior you'd like? Docking Bay? Markets? Hotels? etc

@Ramon, love your "paintings" particularly Planet Paradise (seems a popular one). There's just something very serene and yet "normal" about it (ignoring any scaling issues).
@ClymAngus, your pic is great but it reminds me of one of those (de)motivational posters:
"Procrastination: hard work pays off in time, but being lazy pays off now"

What can ya do? Picasso always reminds me of dice. Any bit of art is half the artists intention and half the psychological history the individual brings to it.
As for a tag line how about:
"Gas: Check it's off before you leave."

The great thing about the line I had was that it was on a poster in the computer lab at my Uni. I'm guessing the professors weren't responsible for putting that poster up.

I knew immediatly when I saw the picture that the Cobby was out-of-scale.
But, as I've said, I like the picture because it's beautiful, thus—I don't care. To heck with scale!

Even hundreds of years into the future I bet parking is still going to be a b|tch so you never know when the ability to park sideways in a hangar bay will come in handy.
