New spaceship - Exploration Lander

[Bryan K]

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.

[Mike Amos]

Interesting design, looking forward to renders mate.

[Bryan K]

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.

Looking good . Keep it up

[Bryan K]

More roughing in of the interior.

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

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.

Good progress !

Roughing in the landing gear. Long way to go.

[Bryan K]

Thanks tuna.

More interior roughing.

[Bryan K]

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.

[Bryan K]

Thanks Mike.

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.

Great progress, looks great.

[tuna1957]

Good progress

[Bryan K]

Thanks Mike and Tuna.

[Bryan K]

Hang on. I'm coming back to this.

[Bryan K]

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

More detail to come.

Have you shown it to Elon It looks like
It is built with the same manufacturing technology as his pickup trucks
