Space X Mars shuttle braking into Mars parking orbit.

Powered by a Linear Fusion Gasdynamic Mirror Engine it's able to complete a 170 day round trip between Earth and Mars on a standard Brachistochrone trajectory (accelerating to 50% distance then flipping around and decelerating for the remaining 50%).

This specific ship has been contracted by the Chinese government to transport workers for the Mars Elevator construction programme. It will be met in Mars orbit by a fleet of small shuttles to re-supply and perform basic maintenance before the trip back to Earth.

I have also been trying to get more freelance work so have been posting a lot more stuff to reddit and other forums to try and drum up some commissions.

Yes but you have mastered wood so I would not worry! I made a bird-box once

I can do it tomorrow when I have my laptop back, it will take no more than a couple of minutes so I could not possibly charge you.

I think you can follow this guide to check: http://www.zdnet.com/article/will-your-pc-run-windows-10-use-this-well-hidden-compatibility-checker-to-find-out/

Seems odd that all six are not working, unless you have taken it apart recently it would be strange that the physical connectors have come loose on the motherboard. I would guess it's a driver/software issue but no idea how to fix it. Would you upgrade to Win 10, is 7 still supported?

Have a look at updating the drivers for the USB ports, also it sounds like an old machine if its running W7, would not be out of the question that it's failed. typically on my PC builds one of the USB ports is always the first thing to go.

I do love the Google Translate live video translate function. Has saved me numerous times in the supermarket here in Sweden trying to figure out what's what!

Wow really good, I would add some heat blur on those open doors and maybe a glow on the floor/wall just outside them. Those stone and brick textures are top notch!

I am so busy looking for work hardly have time to make any fun things but still checking out the forum once every couple of days and clicking things.

Yikes

Wishing you a speedy recovery

I saw Peter Byford and Saxon play a few years ago!

I do it all with SUp's native tools Liam, I never was good at drawing, that's why I found and then started using SUp starting with version 3

Oh awesome, keep up posting them here they are really interesting.

Yeah I started with V5 it's been a while.

Wow thats really cool, love finding woodwork sketchup workflow. Do you design everything by hand then move into Sketchup or do you use Sketchup for the original measurements?

Excellent video!

Nice model!

'And in render phase i separate the edges and profiles channels so at the final image i lighten the edges and multiply the profiles on photoshop to give a cool look'

Oh cool thats my workflow too!

Wow how did I miss all these! I live the low poly buildings and the Concept City piece!

Wow looks intense!

Chipp what engine are you using to render the people, is that a random or scripted encounter? Also amazing work cant wait to see how this develops.
