BMM Asturcon Class Mining ship

[DartStriker]

I really like the revisions to the bridge, makes it look alot better I think.

The next thing I plan on trying to figure out is the underside mining bay. Currently it is lacking a bit, and sure it will not really be seen too much, I do not know if it should be left this way yet or not...

Sketches of the design are in progress as I type this.

and interesting idea there Incongruous, but I just have trouble picturing it really...you mean like this big scoop kind of thing?
and yes, as far as I know the Shire has two engines in the front and one in back
EDIT:

A quick sketch for a possible ore bay like on the hegemon ship, along with a bigger grapple arm, more along the lines of the repair ship's arm, but beefier

Well the problem is, I like to keep my models around 3k, this one is already breaking 3.5k Making complex arms can easily add a ton of pollies to this ship. I'll give it a try and see what happens, but I don't want to break 3.7k on this model.
