Over at Firefly Ship Works, the contests have begun!

At random intervals they're going to post pictures of a specific part of the ship. All you have to do is… guess which part it is. First prize is a set of Zoe's name tags, a cool collectible from QMx that isn't easy to get.

Well, usually. Someone already guess the part. But they'll be posting more, so keep watching.

Some time ago, QMx mentioned an interesting project in the works: a large and detailed Serenity model. It promised to be insanely detailed and screen accurate, and I was kinda interested in a "some day" way.

Guess what they're working on…

You can follow the progress at the just-launched Firefly Ship Works Ltd site, www.fireflyshipworks.com. Think of it as a progress diary, posting updates and sneak peeks at the ship as it's crafted. There is no price or ship date available here (and per their policy there won't be one until they have product in sight, keep an eye on the QMx newsletter for those details) but you'll be able to see the amount of care and detail the designers are putting in. This will be our ship. It will be big. It will be beautiful. And it will make visitors to your house go "oooh."

A few hints already dropped, in comments and other places: there will be working lights (including chaser lights to simulate the engine), and they're looking at possibilities like a removable primary buffer panel.

More details as I get 'em. Go check out the site and let 'em know you're out there.
