So, I've been hacking away at the 3D models for the next version of the equipment index and that seems to be going rather well. I know I only throw out one or two a week but they do take a long time to do (the Vulture took about 10 hours, the most recent Sports V about 4). As you can see, it very much depends on the model. I am getting much much quicker than before, when I originally made these models!
The next ones to do are Kestrel (the typical family van) - a model lost in the Great Model Loss Of Sometime In The Naughties, which shouldn't be too hard because I have loads of renders of the original and, to be honest, it was inspired by the VW camper, so I can definitely reproduce it.
The Orbihaul is a bit tricky because I know what I want it to do but have no idea what it should look like. I want a big cargo bay below and a living area on top but I think I want it more streamlined and interesting to look at. Going to need to do some sketches. Might take a bit longer.
The Eagle. I hate the model for the Eagle. Back when everything was pencil and paper, I drew the Eagle in perspective and it was rather good. I've not managed to reproduce it in 3D, so it's going to be something of a struggle when I come to do it. It needs to be somewhere between a grav car and space craft.
