Description


A bit of a kitbash, this one. I'm not sure about the radiator fins at the back... I'm aiming for a "realistic" design, but the ship might look better without them.

I really like the design and look of this, nice work so far! I'd suggest making the vessel longer between the culindrical pods (crew hab?) and the radiator fins, maybe adding some spherical fuel tanks, and or a magnetic accelerator ring (for a fusion drive). Definitely keep the fins, they look like they have a function.

I'd keep the radiator fins -- Madbat is right, they look nicely functional (personally I'd make them larger). A longer spine with fuel tanks, radiation shield, and crew Hab might do very nicely -- excellent work so far!

The Discovery in 2001:A Space Odyssey, was SUPPOSED to have radiators, but Kubrick cut them off because he didn't want it to have wings. Keep the radiator wings. I agree with the other comments. More fuel and if it uses nuclear engines or a fusion drive, a Rad-Shield would be needed. A really nice,solid design. Hope to see more of it.

I think I would keep them, but make them larger. Remember how big the ISS panels are? Also, as stated by the rest of the group, you'll need to stage the accessories based on your type of drive system.

Very nice modeling! Yeah, I think bigger radiators would probably be better if you're going to have them. They look too dinky(dainty?)in proportion with the rest of the vehicle.

I like the design so far. Looks very Terran made.

If you want it realistic, there are too many radiators. Simple explanation: if a radiator can "see" another radiator then some of the heat being emitted by one will be absorbed by another, reducing the effectiveness. That's why real radiators in space usually consist of two "wings" that are opposite each other (if there are more, than one set is directly in front of another).

Excellent design and modeling.

This is a great design. Good modeling! If you want to experiment with the "radiator fins", try shortening the length of those at the engine 'bell'. I do like the ones that look like solar panels towards the end. Hang on to those.
