A little microspace build I made over at Sarah's house. It's an alternate to the Mini Republic Gunship, no added pieces.
I've had this sitting around for a while now, so I thought it was time to post it.
I really like the bow/bridge portion of the ship. It would be a fun thing to try to recreate on a SHIP.

A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket with NASA’s IMAP (Interstellar Mapping and Acceleration Probe), the agency’s Carruthers Geocorona Observatory, and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) Space Weather Follow On–Lagrange 1 (SWFO-L1) spacecraft atop stands vertical at Launch Complex 39A as the sun sets on Monday, Sept. 22, 2025, at the agency’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The missions will each focus on different effects of the solar wind — the continuous stream of particles emitted by the Sun — and space weather — the changing conditions in space driven by the Sun — from their origins at the Sun to their farthest reaches billions of miles away at the edge of our solar system.

The southern cross is a small but obvious sight in southern skies. But from a dark site I like tracing the black lagoons and dark winding rivers of interstellar dust that block the light of millions of distant stars from further reaches of our galaxy.
I'm still struggling with a setup for astrophotography, image stacking and processing, etc. So this is a single frame, 50mm f1.8, ISO1600, 5 seconds and lots of "curves" layers of the luminous variety.
Three novelettes of the Interstellar Medical Service – “The Grandfathers War” (1957), “Med Ship Man” (1963), and “Tallien Three” (1963).
“The human race had spread through the galaxy, colonizing hundreds of alien worlds. The Interstellar Medical Service sent its scouts out to take whatever action was necessary to maintain peace, health and security on those worlds.
“Calhoun was a medic, and on every planet he found nothing but trouble. On Talien III, he had to fight an alien chemical that was turning men into psychopathic killers. On Maya, he discovered vicious bio-weapons being used by a criminal cartel to control people as though they were cattle. On Phaedra II, he encountered a world of children, riddled with disease, yet pursuing a deadly interplanetary war.
“Wherever he went, Calhoun had the same grim choice – avert danger and bring peace, or be destroyed himself by the very forces of chaos he was seeking to overcome!” [From the Introduction]
“One of the all-time great storytellers of science fiction, Murray Leinster writes at his very best in these legendary tales of the Interstellar Medical Service. They are packed with action and adventure, and rich with imagination.” [From the back cover]

This is my first MOC. It started out as a Mining Freighter but shiny white and sleek design does not really match a Space Mining Company now, does it? Interstellar priority freighter it is, for the moment being. :)

Lauren Stewart Harris (1885 - 1970) - "Isolation Peak" (1929)
From Au-dela des Etoiles - Le Paysage Mystique de Monet a Kandinsky
"Seeking an order beyond physical appearances, going beyond physical realities to come closer to the mysteries of existence, experimenting with the suppression of the self in an indissoluble union with the cosmos… It was the mystical experience above all else that inspired the Symbolist artists of the late 19th century who, reacting against the cult of science and naturalism, chose to evoke emotion and mystery. The landscape, therefore, seemed to these artists to offer the best setting for their quest, the perfect place for contemplation and the expression of inner feelings.
Thus the exhibition, organised in partnership with the Art Gallery of Ontario, Toronto, explores the genre of landscape principally through the works of Paul Gauguin, Maurice Denis, Ferdinand Hodler and Vincent Van Gogh, but also presents North American painters such as Giorgia O'Keeffe and Emily Carr, who are less well known in France. Contemplation, the ordeal of the night or of war, the fusion of the individual with the cosmos, and the experience of the transcendental forces of nature, are stages in a mystical journey the exhibition invites you to take."
Landscape received scant mention in Symbolist circles although the Impressionists had embraced it as a subject and invented a new style of painting focusing on the tangible world.
However, some artists chose to address their spiritual inquiries by depicting landscapes.
Against the backdrop of the rise of Positivism, which prioritised scientific experimentation, and in a world experiencing significant change, artists were pervaded by a form of idealism and began to question their own origins, religious culture and the relationship between man and nature. Nature became the locus for soul-searching, culminating in mystical experiences.
Mysticism was widespread in the late 19th century and this phenomenon is a feature of all religions and beliefs, offering a means of accessing the mysteries of existence through oneness with nature. This exhibition aims to analyse how mysticism influenced landscape painting at the dawn of the 20th century, paving the way for the birth of abstraction.
The sections of the exhibition reveal works by artists from diverse cultures who are exploring the transcendence and immanence of nature. The first section, which is underpinned by Monet’s aesthetic experiments, introduces visitors to the work of art as an aid to contemplation.
However, many artists use the motif of the landscape as a starting point to express their aspiration to mystical experience, including the Nabis, who found the theme of the sacred wood conducive to meditation. The second section explores the notion of the divine in nature in greater depth through works belonging to the Synthesist, Symbolist and Divisionist movements. Their iconography draws on Christian and Pantheist tropes.
In the third section, vivid and original paintings by Canadian artists from the period 1910-1930 tell the story of the North in pictures influenced by the natural world of Scandinavia. Landscape also reflects actual or internalised night in the fourth section, which is luminous in the case of Van Gogh, or melancholic and tragic when evil makes its presence felt.
By contrast, the mystical painter Dulac paves the way for the universal. The final section addresses the forces which transcend man and draw him to the realm of the stars: the cosmos and its interstellar light. This visit aims to reflect what Kandinsky describes as “those seeking for the internal in the external”.

Well, if the neighbours are going to have long, loud firework displays at this time of night, then I'm going to make the most of them by taking some shots.
