Give LV-1 same engine shroud as 48-7S


Recommended Posts

There's something that's always bugged me about the LV-1 (the engine for ants), it doesn't have a shroud when you attach a decoupler or docking port to the bottom. Instead it sort of just stands there as this little flimsy thing that ruins any appearance of the ship having structural integrity. With a docking port (regular or Jr) it's really bad, since you get this big open area visible below it, like the engine is just floating. Since I design my ships with at least some attention to 'realistic' appearance this pretty much rules out using this engine despite some cool designs that could use it.

Can the LV-1 just get a copy of the same shroud that is given to the Rockomax 48-7S (the tiny 0.1t engine)? The only issue I could see is the 48-7S is a fraction taller - maybe it could be clipped a little shorter for the LV-1.
