The long body of the ship exerted a kind of personality of the MPA. Unlike his former hefty body, the Coxcomb had undergone a successful diet, where his length had been reduced to 3 kilometers, with a flatter, condensed appearance and two supportive engines at both sides to achieve agility.
The dark crimson body was not the result of normal painting, rather it was finished with a particular kind of alloys which mostly were made out of the uncommon mineralites Ye Chong had collected over the course. The bright red alloy was tainted by the color of black gold in the end, thus the darkened hue. Shang said such type of alloy was quite above the standard for it would have superior performance in defending against energy-based firing. Under most circumstances, such alloy would only be found in the shield of advanced mech models. But Ye Chong had an inventory full of the necessary mineralites, so Shang just dumped the choices into the pot and coated the entire body of the ship with it.
