Really? I learn something new every day
Keep them coming, guys! -
This is great stuff. Thumbs up.

Thanks Burt and Liam.
The hub looks like it's going to take some time. It's hard to tell, but it looks like there is some kind of sliding hatch over the hub's docking collar for the cargo modules. Also, the docking details for the lander/shuttle are non-existent.
The book also calls for a cargo handler on the opposite side of the lander. I have found one done by gmcgavren in the Warehouse and need to figure out how to attach it or give it a "hanger" module of it's own.
It's a very deceptive looking module.

well have fun thats the main thing!

I am!

Preliminary hub module. Does not have the door covers and guide rails for the cargo hatch, yet.
-
Hub module complete for now.
(cargo handler will come next to last when completing the whole model.)The doors and cargo hatch recesses were a PAIN!
Note the starboard lights.
-
To date:
-
Minor update:
Hub module was too long. That's the perils of "guesstimating." More nav lights added. Some inter-module pipes darkened. Cargo hatch lettering adjusted
-
This is a great thread
-
Thanks Rich.
Here's the Hab/Command module. Not finished but very close. Still needs the com-dish. The black bulge on the side toward the rear is a cargo master control cupola. There is one on the other side as well.
The cylinder sticking up on starboard is what I "think" is a bridge periscope. (it is now by god!)
The numbers were a pain. Had do do each one separate and small enough to fit on the flat planes of the cylinder, rotate 90, then scale each by hand.
The big dish on the front is actually a debris deflector projector.
Funny thing about this model. It's gets harder instead of easier.
Still, learning a lot of new things.

Anyway, you should be proud of "Pride"
Keep up the good work!
