I don't know if all you are getting sick of my constant posts to this subgroup,
but here we go. I received some books that I ordered from the Syd Mead website
( http://www.sydmead.com ) last night. And after reading through them all
(till about 4am last night) I felt inspired to do a lot of different things.
But first on the block is to finish the blacktron lander. To this end I bid on
another MIB (6987) and began to do some more design sketches. My artistic
talent is very limited (this is why I like LEGO so much), so dont judge them to
harshly. The two images below show the profile of teh ship (one with inside
details and the other with outside details). There are some other sketches
that I used for other views as well as some sketches I did to help refine the
design. So here we go:

I'm making them public so spacers will have an idea of what I have brewing as
well as to start a disscussion of how people plan and build their space
designs. I draw out about half of my designs on paper well before I snap the
firts bricks together. The other half result from cool shapes that result from
brick experimentation. What do ya'll do?
