Very cool, Liam.
Are you planning on rendering it with colors/textures?
Cheers!

Yes I plan to finish adding the details and then render it/illustrate it.

Quick update

Ha! Hadn't noticed the wheels. (previous page) That was a busy time of year for me at work.
Love the drop ship!
I think I'm about to tackle either some kind of curvy mecha or an old vehicle design of mine to exercise Artisan.
Oh, and how did this thread end up in WIP? Just curious.

Because nothing I ever do gets finished so everything just goes in this one thread.

I didn't know what you where talking about but just realised i borrowed your wheels lol. Thanks they are really cool, I have been making some sort of Mars Rover and am thinking of also using them for that or a derivative.
What project are you working on now?

Looking epic, tons of detail, hope to get a shot at rendering it one day.
One question, are those jet engines not going to melt the tires on take off?

You can render it if you like once I have cleaned up the mesh, as I am only building it with the intention to paint it in photoshop the only renders I need are a stock clay render and another render to capture the reflection map (assign the whole model to stock aluminium in Thea and run for 15 mins through Presto then run both layers as masks in Photoshop. Therefore not bothering to worry about intersections and the like, I am not even working in layers!!! But the plan will be to eventually clean the model as I want to try to animate a landing sequence.
Yes I suspect not only would the tires melt but anybody sitting in the passenger compartment with the door open would be instantly vaporized.
there are four lifting engines underneath if you can notice them, the idea would be that the main engines would throttle right down and only be used for stability when landing/hovering.

Really love the style of the stealth image

Finished(ish)

Nice.
Is the wire work offset right slightly for any particular reason?
-
For the next Mars exploration ?

Yes my export from SU and THEA appear to be off by a few pixels!! Arghh annoying, I was so tired when I posted it I never noticed. Day 8 of no smoking taking its mental toll.

Good luck with that Liam a tough nut to crack. May the force be with you.
