Hi there,
Sorry I've not posted on here for so long. As far as Star Engine goes, the latest version will go up on this blog, starengineelf.blogspot.co.uk, starting in about a weeks time. What's there still out of date (and has lots of errors); the latest version is a lot more streamlined and trimmed, the dialogue much better (imho), and I've taken out words like nincompoopery. It'll get to the action faster.
My current project that's occupying most of my time is this one:
51century.blogspot.co.uk/
This is a more generic, futuristic sci-fi and homage to various things I like. Which is maybe a positive thing; I realise I needed to have spent a lot more time developing the world and the characters for the other thing before I started writing it (although the more I've written, the more I've grown to understand both, and what works and what doesn't... I just kept getting completely stuck at the beginning and how to introduce them all).
Anyway, I actually made a few models for 51st Century... from scratch (i.e I didn't just take a couple of other models and glue them together). They're simple at the moment, but I keep gradually improving them:
ISS Thunderchild:
Kinda of frustrating that so far, most people think it's a reference to a ship that appeared only very briefly in Star Trek: First Contact.
And here is the ships computer, Hull:
And here is a girl who isn't really that badass, but I've made her look so here:
Almost forgot, there is of course a DeviantArt gallery as well:

You can see how the space ship design has developed.
