Welcome!
For years, I was heavily into Star Trek ship designs, drawing blueprints for
task-oriented ships. When I take a look at your creations, I remember why I
liked it so much. The variety of roles and variations you have made are
quite impressive. The backstory meshes nicely with the designs and
definately draws you in for a closer look. If nanoscale is to be your
thing, keep going with it! That scale allows for such wonderful dioramas
and scenes. Perhaps you could even progress to micro scale for some of them?
A good start out of the gate...keep going!
Cheers,
-G
