Thanks! I'll add a propulsion system later but it wouldn't be visible from
this angle anyway.

I agree.

I don't go for "functional realism", but I do go for some degree of
"graphical realism".

Example: I want AL to be believable as a living character, but not in the
sense that an alien could look just like that in reality.

Example: I want his spacecraft to look like a real object with somewhat
realistic textures and so on, but it doesn't have to be realistic in the
sense that a spacecraft could be designed like that in reality.

So the point is that I would indeed like to place AL in a somewhat realistic
landscape. :)

Greetings,

Rune
