Ignatz,
The colors are looking nice! Everything stands out.
Got that commercial itch to design some advertising for the cargo boxes, do you? I have only one request: an ad for "Roberta Batewell 5 Year Old Scotch Whiskey", known informally as Auntie Bob, it's the most popular liquor in space. It's made in the Greenbelt star system in the Alliance, and was featured in "Risk Analysis".
The model is really great!

David,
"Roberta Batewell 5 Year Old Scotch Whiskey"? Gosh, but they bottle that stuff young!
I'll take your advice to heart and put up some advertising on those containers. (wink!)

Auntie Bob is mid-shelf, and ubiquitous. They use some extra filtering to kind-of smooth it out, and a little future hand-wavy stuff to make it taste a bit better. No one would ever say it's the best, but for middle-of-the-week drinking? It's got a galaxy of fans!

David,
Who am I to argue with a galaxy of fans?
I'm including yet another render. To your eyes it will look very much like the previous render I sent. I fiddled a bit with the compositor to get a nice, juicy glow around the lighting, but the real difference is invisible. I spent the day rebuilding the containers. Yes, yes, they don't look a bit different. Weren't meant to. But the mesh topology of those containers is now correct for adding extra decoration and decal work. So if you will just let me know where I can get in touch with the Roberta Batewell manufacturers over in Greenbelt I'll send them the bill for the advertising work to come (ha! ha!).
