Interesting image, this thing looks really big
i cant wait this will sell like hotcakes.
Here is a brightness and contrast fiddled piccy- you can see another engine cluster
Here is what I assume was the starting point- it will be interesting to see how FD evolved what has been around concept wise as well as the half finished model in game:
This is a panther, but a bit smaller than the ship of legend.

What I mean is, where did FD start from? From a mechanical standpoint it looks like Prometheus but with a second articulation joint connecting the engine pods.
Notice that in both the Pit Con pic and the concept art the rear and front engine pods are spaced the same- that is the front pods are set apart and would fold up.
Here is a realistic size comparison of a Panther being docked at London Spaceport in the good old golden ages:This is a panther, but a bit smaller than the ship of legend.

That ship of legend, from earlier games:
Mounts large plasma accelerator on extra huge weapon slot, boosts out mail slot with G5 dirty drives at 45 m/s, runs out of gas as soon as Class 8 Frameshift Drive fires up
I wonder if enough stuff pivots and articulates for what I'm assuming to be the front thruster to drop down below the rear thruster while in flight. It also appears you are in the picture, so stop being so secretive!
