Yep, there has been progress - we have new missions, a couple more video cutscenes have been musicized, and Pierre and Alex are doing some improvements to the openGL renderer. We'll get around to posting a full news update soon(tm).
As an aside, you know that the team did release a screenshot of the Bengal a while back in a news update.

We can't go ahead and give everything away...
Another note is that there has been a good amount of progress in the last week...I've been busy testing new missions and some OpenGL improvements that will hopefully fix a number of bugs that occur on laptops (not quitting correctly, some other oddities).
That and I've been getting really used to using a joystick again...my god I don't know how I survived using a mouse for so many years
