No seen anything about them here lately and some pretty big news. 

A mini starship as in an rapid fully reusable rocket makes a lots of sense and this is a bit larger than an falcon 9, shorter but 5 rather than 3.5 meter diameter. 
Starship is oversize for most uses. 

The other is 3d printing tanks, how can that compete with rolled steel or aluminum, can not see you get the carbon fiber structure with 3d printing. 
In short why is 3d printing tanks an good idea. For lots of other stuff yes but think tanks would be one of the last thing I would 3d print on an rocket :)
