one note about paneling: Make your panels as a separate object! It will 1) prevent smooth errors. 2) Make it easier if you have to make changes later. Because the underlying mesh is unaltered. | |

Downloads: 0 Uploads: 0 | a quick test to show how the escape pods look/work, and a preview of cutouts on the hull. (There are some errors where not all edges were hardened, I'll fix them later.) I'm thinking of modeling the hull in three layers: 1. exterior plating. 2. shell (as backing where panels meet/ recess, also to make sure there are no holes) 3. interior wall/ ceiling panels. the evac pod is a placeholder. what does everyone think of the basic design? |

Downloads: 0 Uploads: 0 | Wow! This truly is astounding... the level of detail you are putting into this is awesome, not to mention the effort. And I really like the fact that you are using both the Sternbach and Whitefire plans as references... very well thought-out and wise. I also am totally loving the shape and look of the escape pod. I eagerly await further updates. ![]() |

Downloads: 0 Uploads: 0 | Ozy: there will be a hatch. thanks to your tut, there will also be many more fun cutouts. Bolian: thanks. unfortunately, all that's really been proven by using both references is that no one was particularly sure how big this thing even was. ![]() I am very tempted to design and model Deck 16 (saucer) now... ![]() |
