:csi: The only possible problem is the color scheme, which is pretty common. It's still way to good to be thrown together for the sake of it. Wow.

It was the detailed interior that really made me sit up and take notice. I was thinking, 'Nice ship,' - and then I scrolled down and saw the interior shots and it was 'Wow!'

Because this ship is INCREDIBLY AWESOME on the order of Dr. X Ossumness I put it on the front page of the website. I put this image in OP to let the world know that this is an OSSUM thread.

Whats not to like about this? Excellent work, tunasailor.

I like how many of the recent posts on the website are things Natalya thought were cool.

I, like so many others, love how you detailed the interior. I also like the VTOL engines. The design of it actually looks like something that could be feasible for production down the road, based on the designs of our shuttles today and the direction they're heading.

Just out of curiosity though; can it bend space-time and fold itself into a tiny pocket of existence so it can be carried by it's owner in a pouch when not in use? I think that'd be sweet, based on the ship it's named for....

I'm trying to suck in the lurkers... Maybe if cool stuff from the boards is posted on the front page then people will be more likely to join the boards?

Big thanks to everyone!!

@jmatthew: the name is actually from one of the gods horses, the ship you are talking about is Skíðblaðni.
Well those are two names are very similar, not hard to get confused(probably because I put "ship" in there), but I like that you know about it so well, have you studied it?
And if someone was to name their ship Skíðblaðni it would have to be the biggest and greatest of all ships as said in Snorra-Edda
(I'm studying that in school, one of the main Icelandic subject... ain't I lucky)

Haha my bad! Yeah, I noticed it wasn't spelled quite the same, and I just thought it was a spelling I hadn't seen before. I'm actually really into Norse mythology.
