Description
VASIMR Nuclear engine for Saturn spaceship USS Achilles
This is the first variation of my design for a nuclear engine VASIMR for the Saturn spaceship USS Achilles. I have post 50 pictures on my website dealing with just the engine section for this ship. The design is in the earlier stages and I am quite sure by the time the ship is finish it may change drastically.
The next section that I will be designing and building will be the spine section that will hold most of the main components of this ship, fuel, life support, HAB, Lander section.
If you would like to see more detail views of this ship you can visit my website at http://www.bambam131.com under the header (USS Achilles).
This model was built and design by me using Bryce 5.5 with all parts used originating from the Boolean objects that come with Bryce. So far there are over 25000 objects in the engine sections with just over 3533850 polygons being used to date. The file weighs in at 370 Megs.
I am sure by the time this project is completed the file size will be over a gigabyte with who knows how many individual parts and polygons. This is the first picture that I have posted in over 5 months and I look forward to reading any comments you may have of this ship so far.
Cheers,
David

Spectacular work so far, but I would suggest that the deflector panals at the rear would need the adjusters to be less exposed and smaller.
