Solo is at it again. This is my silver ships based on a couple previous models, modified to some degree but still recognizable. I've always liked the shiny ship in the newer Star Wars movies - the kind that Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi Wan escaped with Queen Amidala on when they had to land on Tatooine. Sorry, I'm rambling.

Ah you mean the one that was an SR-71? (it even has an SR-71 shadow when it comes into land a Tattooine!)

Oh and "very nice"!

Thank you DH. That "shiny" ship - oh my it was beautiful. If only I had shader capable video I could at least have had a chance of simulating it's awesome light reflectivity. When it landed you could see all the colors of land and sky on it's surface. It is called a J-type 327 Nubian.

I like these variants of the normal ships. Thanx CaptSolo.

I know - my reference to the SR-71 was this:



Look at its shadow and then look at the shadow of the J-type 327 Nubian as it comes into land on Tattooine.

Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird! My favourite jet plane!!!
