Everyone aboard - the Blacksun Transport is taking off to another Galaxy!
Experience one of the most advanced and detailed space ships in SL. Several month of work, as well as nearly L$5000 in upload costs alone went into this extensive project, which is made of a hundred percent Mesh.
The ship's overall dimensions are approximately 51 x 101 x 20 meters (WxLxH) and it will use about 2400 of your land's prims. What you will get for that is an amazing hull and a breathtakingly detailed interior that consists of three levels, made up of the bridge, three additional rooms and several corridors. There are some permanently closed doors that give the impression of an even greater interior.
The bridge features a beautiful hologram of the ship itself, which is also found in one of the additional rooms. One of the corridors directly connects to one of the ship's engines, making it a great place for the ship's engineer.
Some lights are placed within the ship, so you definitely should check it out at midnight, too.
In the package, there are two versions, a stationary and a drivable version. The stationary one could be used as your home, a headquarter, or even as RP environment since it has room for lots of Avatars and a unique atmosphere. The drivable one is basically the same, but misses one of the corridors.
There are some things you should be aware of: since an object with a prim count like this can't really be turned into a vehicle, the "drivable" version will just move one meter at a time, making for a rather laggy movement. Also note that the elevators that connect the three levels don't actually move; there is a simple script that will re-position you into the other floor. And last, know that there is no entrance to the ship. Once rezzed on your land, you would need to create a landmark inside, right-click sit on one of the chairs or simply double-click teleport inside.
If you happen to have any concerns, questions, or comments, please contact me (Shepard Vyper), I will be more than happy to help! Also, your feedback might find its way into upcoming products. Customers will get updates of this product for free.

Woooaaawww ,one of the most beautifull spaceship i have seen in SL
Im Impressed by the quantity of details, and the quality of the mesh, more than that, an awesome texturing job, the only negative point is no working doors to enter in the ship, i read the product description so i was aware of it before buying it, but it would be something to improve in the future
Overall, amazing quality for a low price, i would recommand that spaceship, and im looking forward for next products from that creator :)
Inexpensive, not cheap!
I can't believe a ship this huge and this well made is only $1500L!!! I am absolutely amazed by this stunning vessel. MUST BUY!!!
PROFESSIONAL
So, I walked around on the Beta grid when suddenly noticed something bing hovering over me in the sky. When I looked up, I had to hold my breath for a second because what I saw was literally breathtaking - the Blacksun. I asked the creator for the Marketplace link, and he told me he just started to sell and it would be on for a lower price right now, so I got it immideately.
Now, I don't know about the driving capabilities, as I'm not interested in that - I'm using it as a home and RP environment only - but it looks better than anything I've ever seen in SL, seriously. As a Mesh builder myself, I can tell what's quality and what isn't and this obviously is a professional job.
There are some little downsides, for example, there is no regular "way" in - you need to sit on one of the chairs or simply teleport / landmark in; but once that's done, you're in for a lot of "oooooh!" and "aaah!" and "wooooaaaah!", so that isn't really an issue. :)
Can only recommend it to everyone, especially for that promo price!
