Oh my God, we're killing Bobboau with umm...work!  Of course, you did create things like the Alfheim yourself, though we're willing to use them. 
The story of the scrapped models is thus:
At the start of the campaign we didn't have massive ideas for huge fleets of ships but we wanted to make the Sol faction look different. Thus, it was suggested to us that rather than making new models, we converted some - from Homeworld. So, the Taiidan heavy cruiser and carrier were commissioned - Dark converted them and textured them, and Bobb did all the hard work on the LODs, subsystems and stuff.
Then IceFire (not that I'm blaming!) thought that it wouldn't go down so well with the FS2 community to use HW models, so we decided that new models would be for the best. Bobb conceptualised them and brought them to life, and the new ships are now coming along, and looking mighty.
Oh, on an off note, we're looking, really, for a full time texturer so that we don't kill Bobb, Shrike, and Styxx with work so much and so we can bring cohesion and a good look to Sol. Any takers? You get to see all the models...and the campaign gets done quicker...
