Based on the ship drawn in the original Elite Manual and modelled by me for Oolite.

This turned out pretty good. Five pieces: the forward cone, the rear block, the engine scoop, engine outlet, and base stand. Final dimensions: 10cm long x 5.5cm high (on stand, 4cm off the stand) x 3.6cm wide.

Once undercoated, I'll paint on the shark mouth!

For the moment, only on Shapeways. But the good news is that the price drops from October 1 as Shapeways is revising its price scheme.

Hey, that looks great! Especially since that is my first upgrade. I like the Cobra Mk III too (",)
