Shamrayev Project: Critique deuxième partie

 I did a lot of work on those sails yesterday. Near the end, I had a sudden rush of blood to the head and created that very off-the-cuff angled arrangement. I liked that it wasn't just a flat plane, and the structural framing was pretty cool in places, but it just wasn't looking good.

Maybe I angled the sails in the wrong direction?

It's okay to respond to a sudden idea and go in a new direction, but don't be shackled to the idea. Here, I put a lot of effort into the delicate structural elements around the sails, all of which will be binned if I change this. But it isn't right. It must be changed.

What next?

Double sails look better balanced but more uniform.

Angled. What about doubled, mirrored, AND angled?

Better!

That feels like a "have your cake and eat it" moment; adding visual interest and engineering vibes without the overall effect being discordant and visually messy. I need to watch how the sails converge. I'll look at building an internal framework for the sails.

Progress!

I'll tidy everything up and then move onto the engineering section.
