Description
This is a doodle that turned into something more permanent, following Odessey's request for an 'in orbit' picture of the Sword.
As fellow artist Elcet has commented elsewhere, the design is indeed inspired by the Art Deco locomotives of the early twentieth century.
Since it stands alone, I decided not to try and force a story around it, or contrive the picture in other ways.
The runabout was modelled in Hexagon, and the final image was rendered in Vue 6 Pro Studio.
Thanks for looking, comments appreciated!

Superb modeling Mark :)
I love the model. The lines are flowing and clean. Also the indentations are also very slick. Now drag it into a texturing program and give some paint :)
Very nice. The ship has a great, almost organic look, and I have a thing for that kind of ships :) Great work.
Classy. Curious though, the bigger ships seem to have very few crew also. Could it be a matter of cargo/combat capacity? Errgggh! I soooo want to pick your brain!
Great lines on this one - love the render!
Wonderful Modeling. Excellent image.
Very intriguing ship, cool modeling for sure, looks great in a scene!!
Awsome details scene texturing colors Excellent ART work SCI-FI Buff
Excellent work and image, well done..
And a very fine near-planet background, too, Mark. I'd like to see this with it entering the atmosphere with a sheet of flame surrounding it. How about it?
cool design, is it hypernurb'ed?
Very nice image and model. Jump 36??!?! That's um, pretty good.
Excellent modeling. I'm trying to learn Hexagon and I can't do anything like this yet.
Ah what a tease! I saw the picture and thought the Lazloi were back in the story! Guess I'll have to wait for the next instalment. On the other hand the pic is so good it doesn't need a story!!
Now were taliking atmosphere and a well designed craft !
Cool image!
Xcellent work!
Exceptional Modeling, this is Cool!!!

Absolutely wonderful and I like so much the original design and concept! A masterwork at every point of view!
Wonderful model and view! Well done!!
Great to see the ship in flight! Shows off your model so well - and the lighting here is beautifully done :)
Missed this earlier! So many fine qualities to this picture.
That's gorgeous. The lighting and texturing are fantastic.
