      Exactly, this is beautiful, it looks like a ship that could work in the real world and the texture is fantastic, I love it

      Thanks.
      I agree it looks beautiful but I have doubts about real world applications.

      Well we wont just use real world applications, we need to think future applications also but making it recognisable at first sight, like when you look at an object it will be futuristic but the object is recognisable too if you get my meaning.

        Ok this is only an idea for the project, obviously what you see here is only an interpetation of the ship, watch the animation and take note each componant appears repersents a part of the interior which is constructed to scale and place in another SU so that it doesnt clutter the entire project, remember this is only an example, from the start of the animation take it that the orange object which appears first is a repersentation of the ships hull πŸ˜„

        Its in the link which follows https://www.dropbox.com/sh/pz8qbu23gzgcz4d/4ANVdOYONF?m

        I also added different coloured men to repersent levels of clearance, for the ship to be designed well not everyone on board has access to the entire ship, if that were the case we would have all sorts in the engine room, bridge and so on, so taught would have to go into the interior design, down to restrictions for crews entitlements on clearance

              I like the shape, but the geometry makes it very difficult to work with. It's too high poly.

              I either use low poly objects that I build up into complex shapes or I make low poly objects on which I use SDS/Artisan to then have an organic shape and then I add details. This way it's very easy to make modifications and work only on the shape without details getting in the way.

                I could redo a low poly version, this was just a quick example I threw together to get some ideas flowing, any other suggestions?

                  That would be great. Just simplify the geometry and leave the panelling and other small details for when we have the whole ship in a coherent shape. πŸ˜„

                  Like you said...it is a challenge to adapt to each other's styles, but I'm hoping we'll both learn something new. Sorry if I may sound harsh sometimes. πŸ˜„

                          πŸ˜„ πŸ˜„ πŸ˜„ most of the time different styles collide, taught I would throw that in there.
                          So have you any new models in relation to this monstrosity?

                            No, nothing new.

                            So...should we start looking at making another ship from scratch?

                            The model you started has potential.

                                I created that model from an idea I got from this concept, I was working on the top front of the model but like always I get carried away and end up doing my own thing, and that model is what I ended up, it was intended to be the front of the ship but it also has the potentional to be the thrusters, it's a good shape but what part of the ship would it be used for?

                                  It should definitely be the front.

                                  I have a lot of favourite ships....can't really decide on one that we should use as referecence.
                                  Lets just write up a description of how it should look.
                                  So it should be a 200m Exploration cruiser with a solid, sleek and sexy shape. It should look advanced, not a cluncker. It's not a warship so it's not full of weapons, though it should definitely have a few for protection and for experiments and other reasons.

                                    So advanced and not a cluncker, streamlined explorer, you have my attention, sexy? Have you being reading "50 shades of Gray" lol, ok let's break it down, how many engines do we need? Is it just an orbital ship or can it land? Do we have a flight deck for shuttles etc...

                                      I hope we'll eventually have something to show to the people watching us.

                                      No, it's just orbital and might have a few shuttles...maybe attached to the hull?
                                      We'll see if it needs more small modular engines or one big engine depending on the shape.

                                        I suggest 2 shuttles , I was thinking it would be best to contain them inside I'll give an example of how they dispatch, I think you might like this idea.

                                        Now I think we will get something built, I'm studying your style over to see how I can merge mine with yours, and I have a few ideas
