Firstly, I would like to take this opportunity if I may to welcome myself back to the world of contributing to images and art commentary on Renderosity. Welcome Back Turin. Thanks Huw. Now, on with the show. This is my concept for the space craft 'Heart of Gold', described in the book version of Douglas Adam's wonderful 'The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy' as a sleek, white running shoe. Although the radio series came first, I was introduced to the various permutations of the story via the BBC television series, which used Adam's book description above as a basis for their design. I have added small 'nods' to Adam's other work of beauty, the computer game 'Starship Titanic'. Please let me know whether you feel this design is worth continuing with. I have spent approximately a week working on it. The 'horse shoe' section at the rear of the craft is intended to house a ring-like 'engine' as well as a docking ring. If I continue to work on it, this will be the main addition. I would like to recommend that this image is viewed at its full size, so that you can more accurately judge the competency of the modelling and enjoy the subtleties of the image's detail.
