Hay that's some tin toy arik
Arik_the_Red:
Thanks for your ongoing support, folks!
DragonSlayer: Now you're getting ahead of me ;) So far I have only designed the "toy" and the "old black and white TV show model." Once I get back on rocket design, you will be seeing what you describe... which is "the real deal" as to be encountered by "our hero" when he first comes into a docking bay.
Headwax: ummm... do you mean the toy photos, or my tin toy rocket work?
Right now I have moved a bit of my work over to Challenge 16 - Reflections... have made a preliminary fun-run of something, but now giving it a whole different dimension of appearance for "coolnesss".
Oh, I just had to share this pic below... it's a wonderful piece of inspiration art that I found while working on the space station design. Since the style is similar to what I want to recreate in this project, I thought it worth sharing here.
The base that "our hero" finds himself on is built within an asteroid, so when I came upon this pic, it was just sooooo cool! It captures the general style I want for the technology, having something of that 1950s/60s era sci fi look. The view I am creating for the "Reflections" challenge is going to be roughly in this general style.
Also, below a little shot of some indicator lights that will be getting a lot of use as detail imagery... I feel like I should share some little bit of development when I post...

Awesome picture there, Arik. Don't you wish it was yours..? :P
Cool project you're doing here, I'll be sure to keep my eyes on this thread in the future. :)
Arik_the_Red:
Yeah, that's a pretty sweet pic... Thanks for your eyeballs, Geek...
UPDATED PIC 04/26/2010
Here we go... This is also part of my Reflection Challenge entry... working out a communication panel that is found in various rooms of the space station. I've rearranged things a few times to get a look I like, and I think this will do.
The upper right cylinder (dark lens) is a camera for transmission... The green/red lights indicate signal status (being received or "no signal"). The grill below the monitor us the microphone/speaker. I am working on a couple of control knobs - one shown in the images.
Note, the look, for those "in the know," is inspired by the dashboards of old late 1950s and early 1960s American vehicles - specifically the Ford Thunderbird and Edsyl. It is also a look that was considered futuristic to the Flash Gordon comics of the time.

Looking better every minute, Arik. :D
