I wanted to do a "Star Citizen" style ship, with a lavish cockpit that has a somewhat luxurious feel to it. The general shaping is more akin to a generic RTS fighter, but I tried to spice it up with just enough details to compliment the ostensibly simple shape.
Added a lot more integration to the first attempt this year: www.flickr.com/photos/34175043@N00/52110678495/

I see the Milky Way in Maggie's Eye
“A broad and ample road, whose dust is gold,
And pavement stars—as starts to thee appear
Soon in the galaxy, that milky way
Which mightly as a circling zone thou seest
Powder'd with stars.”

From Dean Salman's instruments in Colorado - Spacecat W.O. + Sbig 16200 _ L 4h - rgb 3 h for channel
Building instructions and .ldr file available freely here.
What mainly inspired me for this build:
- intergalactic racing pit stop station something by LEGOLIZE IT MAN (2018).
- Bastard of Winterfell by dasnewten (2011).
- UNES Odyssey 21 by Kyle Collard (2013). I don't recall very well but I think this inspired me for the sensor array and the general black aesthetic behind the hull.
This is my tribute to that glorious era in the 2010's when people like dasnewten, Red Spacecat, LEGOLIZE IT MAN, Ryan Olsen, Alexander Safarik, Tim Schwalfenberg, only to name a few (find all the others in my favorites), were building all those amazing microspace ships more or less inspired by Homeworld universe, or with a brick-built hull.
Armed with high-explosive tranquilizer darts. Perfect for the protection of construction sites, container storage facilities, etc.
「ま、なるようになるさ⋯」
"Whatever happens, happens."
Someone pointed out that the cockpit was weaksauce and I could not let that stand. And speaking of stands, I also made a proper stand this time with more than 5 pieces (inspired by some plastic models of this thing). Plus I added a missile just for Red Spacecat.
前のバージョンについて「コックピットが負けているな」とか言われたので作り直しました。ついでにプラモデルを見習ってベースもリメイク、そしてRed Spacecatさんが欲しかったミサイルを加えた。
Comments and criticism welcome.

About this image:
Comet C/2021 A1 Leonard imaged on 28 December 2021 from South Africa.
I tried to capture as much detail in the structure of the tail as possible, which makes processing a challenge (as the comet is moving). The coma, tail and stars were processed individually, and each part aligned, stacked and combined.
The Comet has a green Coma (or head). The green colour is caused by Cyanogen (CN) and diatomic Carbon (C2), which glows in the green part of the Electromagnetic Spectrum of Light when illuminated by the Sun in space.

Carl Sagan on Comets:
People's reaction to Comets in History:
Excerpt from Cosmos S01E04: "By 1910, Halley's comet returned once more. But this time, astronomers using a new tool, the spectroscope had discovered cyanogen gas in the tail of a comet. Now, cyanogen is a poison. The Earth was to pass through this poisonous tail. The fact that the gas was astonishingly, fabulously thin reassured almost nobody. For example, look at the headlines in the Los Angeles Examiner for May 9, 1910: "Say, Has That Comet 'Cyanogened' You Yet?" "Entire Human Race Due For Free Gaseous Bath. Expect High Jinks." Or take this from the San Francisco Chronicle, May 15, 1910: "Comet Comes And Husband Reforms." "Comet Parties Now Fad In New York." Amazing stuff! In 1910, people were holding comet parties, not so much to celebrate the end of the world as to make merry before it happened. There were entrepreneurs who were hawking comet pills. I think I'm gonna take one for later. And there were those who were selling gas masks to protect against the cyanogen. And comet nuttiness didn't stop in 1910." - Carl Sagan, Cosmos.

My approximation of Aaron Beck’s “Flathead” mech. This probably was one of my more challenging builds to date. Not only am I not accustomed to building things that look as close to their real life or concept counterpart, this one also had only one image as reference. Figuring out how the elements not in view would look/work was…interesting. In the end I’m pleased with the model, even if building and photographing it were extremely challenging.
Why this concept art? For one, I followed Aaron from way back, I think he’s an exceptional artist with truly unique and instantly recognizable designs. If you’re not familiar with his work, he has done designs for Elysium, Avatar and Call of Duty, to name just a few. His blog is a treasure trove of awesomeness. And two, this specific design just kinda stuck with me over the years. It’s such a fun concept, basically a walking ammo drum, with the right balance between plausibility and weirdness.
This is a great shot of Luap31's incredible Brickville skyline with my mediocre photoshop skills. This is one of the craziest microcityscapes I've seen, and this is me "chopping it foreward" after Red Spacecat's chopping of my Imperial Chinese Navy.
Andrómeda es la galaxia espiral más cercana a la Tierra, visible a simple vista en noches oscuras. Hay registros del 964 a. C por un astrónomo persa.
Se sitúa a 2.54 millones de años luz y se extiende por 220.000 años luz , el doble que nuestra galaxia la Vía Láctea. Es menos densa que la Vía Láctea. La galaxia de Andrómeda se esta acercando a la Vía láctea a razón de 100km/s por lo que en unos 2500 millones de años interactuara con ella.

Low on fuel, I headed into a truckstop for a fillup. It was the last one before a big jump into nothingness, and it was a pain in the butt to navigate into, since it was surrounded by asteroids. The asteroids gave the outpost some protection from raids, but I swore as one slammed into my right rear tailfin and broke off a sensor. This pitstop was going to take longer than I thought.
(Big thanks to Steph, for introducing me to this fantastic build, to Fianna, for the free Sheen outfit, and I noticed Andro has been visiting, too!)
Relatively small and heavily armored, this cube type punches trough defenses to cause chaos behind enemy lines prior to the main assault.

On holiday in the Eifel in Germany and hoping for clear nights, but unfortunately it seems that most of the times it's clouded and lightning in the evening. So I already gave my hopes up a bit when yesterday evening I noticed it was clearing up. Against my feeling I decided to just build up the equipment and see what would happen. Somehow I was lucky and while there was lightning in the distance the sky kept clear right over my head until about 4 in the morning. So I decided to work on some dark nebulae as they are impossible to image from my home location.
I used my setup using the Spacecat and Nikon D810a with an Asiair controlling everything. This works really great, except for a few times the guiding just stopped without a reason, and so I was able to catch in total 29x300s of images of LDN 1235/1251. LDN 1235 is also known as the shark nebula but somehow this image makes me think of a shark lurking under water to catch the swimmer (LDN1251) at the surface.
During the imaging I took time to enjoy the Milky Way shining over me and see some nice details even with the naked eye. During the night quite a lot of Perseids were visible, sometimes very quick and shortly visible, but also a few that left a nice trail.
Thanks for watching and I hope for a few more nice nights to get even more detail out of this image in the coming nights.

After the first night, just before leaving home the last night became clear and I was able to catch about 5 more hours of data. In the last year I also took images with my larger telescope and combined all this data into this 21 hour exposure of this beautiful region.
