No more opening on the central missile turret.


Ah yes, thats much better.  Before the prow felt (to me) to be a little too airy and fragile.  Now its got that solid look about it that is the main strength of the Cannon Moloch design (to me).

Just checked.
For now, w/o the turrets, it's 978 polys, and 1490 triangles. That's quite moderate for a corvette, I think, which is a good thing. After I've added the FS1 engines ( I will comepltly disregard any comment about that, btw, I prefer them that way, some share my opinion, so I'm happy with it, period ), I probably won't do much more changes to it. But I'll have to completly redo the turrets, coz they're just... well, primitive ( bawhahaha, that was funny ).

Looking great.  I'm still eager to see what it is that you plan on doing with the engines themselves though.
