Project: Traveller Mk25 ships

 The idea is to build a model of each of the classic Traveller starships - Scout/Free Trader/Subsidized Liner, etc with a modern twist. I did a sketch of the new Scout ship, which I liked. Alas, I have repeatedly failed to get the form into a basic Blender model.


The ship I want to build...but haven't managed yet.

I wasted a lot of time with more traditional variants. They always reached a point where I felt I was no better off compared with the previous Scout build.



At this point, I felt like I needed to show something for my time, but I stopped hitting my head against the wall in terms of the more complex geometry of the planned design. So, I whipped up a traditional build in a couple of hours.



I'll run this to completion, but then I may restart the above design. I'll probably watch some training videos for modelling first.
