Been working on this almost a whole day. This ship comes with landing gear btw. Just change the value of the shape key "LandingGearDown" to 1. I may upload a newer version of this ship with a cockpit inside since there's not too many vertices outside of the ship. If you want to animate this, you can change the length of the "cone-shape" thruster fire to indicate the strength of the flames. Hope you enjoy.
Nice model to add to your collection...
