Wow, what a week! We've had some incredible progress as the team really doubled down to get the prototypes finished! The shuttle has gone on to be painted, and interior is now being finalised. It is amazing to see the ships all together on the table.
All five ships assembled, with two crewmembers for scale!
We made a short video to generate a bit more buzz about the upcoming campaign! Of course, immediately after, we improved the renders, adding the Sleipnir Refit in.

Many ships got some design revisions in the last week, including a new engine block for the Ratatosk to make it more distinct from its larger cousin, the Nidhogg.

The new design features an RCS (reaction control system) frame and a series of three larger drive cones rather than the seven of the Ratatosk.

I wanted to compare the quality increase over our 2020 single engine Sleipnir variant and the 2025 Fenrir.

Next update we will feature more on the interior! Stay tuned, and be sure to comment and let us know what you want to see more of soon!
