One way to address that is to use several layers and ensure there is a gap between plates, which will give a better looking depth than just one sheet of card. But either way should look good, it already looks incredible.

The exterior 'box' is complete, leaving only the UV map and textures to be generated. As with the nose, there is a lot of lamination detail here. The wing root will be modified to house the upper track for the door, which seems the only way to leave the general dimensions of the model intact...

Sorry, I mean laminating layers of paper/card on top of the model for extra depth on raised areas.

This is truly an epic build! I can't recall from earlier posts; are you intending on laminating all of the armour panels?

I'm sorry if the pics are not showing significant progress, I find the diary of development helpful. I have some interference problems with the wings and the side doors with the current design, which I will have to adjust to accommodate. I'll likely need to shift the wing root up, which will...

While I still have some work on the textures to do (the lights, optic elements, and shading particularly), the hardpoints on either side of the cockpit and the sensor suite on the nose are now modeled and mapped: You should be able to see some of the lamination layers, although I am...

A Vodka martini? ;) looking good Blackadder, as always...

The first texture I will admit is for me; I want one (who am I kidding, I want a squadron of these beauties) for my Cadian style army, which is painted in city camo. After that, I may play with other textures, yes, although I intend to release the UV map so that anyone can make/share their own...

I've got them linked in the post, rather than embedded silver, maybe that's the issue. If you can't resolve it, I can embed some in a post for you. More progress: further texture detail on the nose and the rough-in of the cockpit elements. These will mostly be the 'base' parts. Lamination parts...

Apparently I'm painting it... The base color is a bit rough; I'm playing with how to get a nice city-camo. All of the detail (except the decals) is raised/laminated. I still need to add shading/roughing detail as well. I will be releasing a no-colour version as well, for those who don't...

I just picked it up myself; gameplay is very fun, almost visceral. That said, sometimes it is punishingly difficult, although that might be my aging bones talking.

I will be the first to admit that I have a terrible track record with project stalls, but apparently my muse wants me to design one of these (for the moment anyway). I looked over the kits available: Flarebaffled's is awesome, but without an interior or a UV map I don't want to build one...

;) its not an escape pod, but it looks good! I studied too much or Robert Brown's (now defunct) site, Ship of Riddles, on the topic. Those are hatches, possibly with extending mounting sleeves. Some of the early design sketches show those hexagonal shapes actually open, like doors. Tirick

This set is now up in the store. As noted above, I've set the price lower than typical, at $2 CDN. but don't let that deter you. There are 22 unique elements to the set, which can be mixed and matched to create countless layouts. The download is quite large, a little less than 100 megs, this...

Strangely, I'm waiting for that one too... damn muse is fickle. The Pepakura layouts are all complete now, all that remains are instructions, which, while not hefty on the text, will still require some work. Release is on track to be ready within the week. I needed to make a few more...

I have plans for retextures of the corridors, although that will have to wait for other parts to be completed.

Thank you for letting me know lehcyfer. It must have happened in the last week. My 'site' is intact, although my registrar account appears to have been hacked as the sites are now 'registered' with a different registrar. I am investigating how I can get this reversed. I honestly feel like...

I have finished the design on a new project: Modular Starship Corridors. This is the first part of a larger set, which will eventually include basic rooms, level changes as well as context specific room sections such as a bridge, shuttle bay, etc. I also intend to design static elements for...

Brilliant! This is an incredible build, thank you for sharing the process.

As an aside the general diameter of the 'tube' (and thus the cockpit) is the same as the narrow end of the docking ring. In theory there is a straight hall (all the 'halls' have the same diameter) leading to that ring, sealed by the ramp; the hexagonal structures on the surface are the doors. I...
