        Roughing in the interior for scale. Each deck is 8ft tall. 1ft thick deck. 6 crew. Bottom deck is equipment and storage.

          Here is a rough idea of the vertical scale. The landing gear is not deployed.

              Reworked the landing gear pods and the entire aft section. Looks the same but the proportions and angles were off.

              The orange objects are going to be the landing pads.

                  More roughing in of the interior.

                  Just killing time until I figure out the landing gear details. πŸ˜‰

                    Thanks Mike.

                    Added maneuvering thrusters. Yep, lifted straight from the Discovery pod (2001 the movie). I've always liked that design. Eliminated some extra lines on hull.

                        Roughing in the landing gear. Long way to go.

                            Roughing in the actual mechanism.

                              I like where this is going, details are coming along nicely. I have a question about the blue texture.dimples but that is aerodynamic in nature and unlikely to effect the craft in this configuration. πŸ‘

                                No real function for the blue patterns yet. Could be radiators, could be sensor, or solar panels. Could be all of the above combined. Just experimenting with marking and accents.

                                  Modified the hull shape.

                                            Finally over my mental block with the landing gear. This is just roughed in, but the general idea.

                                            More detail to come.
