Sailfish outfitted with a scientific payload instead of cargo space on a wide tour of Persephone #blender #blender3d #spaceship #artistsofbsky #seasinthedarkness #art
Sailfish sits in a distant orbit off the ring plane of Persephone. Like in the other images she is oriented to point her telescope at Persephone and the other objects of the system. Sailfish makes a close pass in polar orbitI need to bake Persephone in higher resolution. Sailfish passes by one of Persephone's several irregular moons orbiting in a ring gap

we picked up another stray Starting as a random temp hire, while mining rocks he got tangled up in an encounter with a noble hunter (seen on the right) and lost an arm i felt bad so i took him to get it replaced and...now he's got some background so I guess he's part of the team

Shiptember. SOLCOM. Tilapia-Class Light Gauss-Missile Carrier. Problem w/ making these in 1 day is the details gotta be gibberish or you'll drain your juice by the 8th hr. Binged S4/5 of Homeland while sketching. Great series. S4 ending was good. PS. Rose's newest song is repetitive. ToughSF.
Orion drive starship with gauss-launched missiles at the front. It has radiators that make the ship look like a fish. It's very long and narrow. Blue and yellow colour, sorta like Ukraine I guess?

Only other one for tonight. Green is always such a difficult colour for me when doing vehicle colour-schemes; I always end up with either Thunderbird 2 or Planet Express Ship. Guess I ended up closer to the former with this one. should've coloured the tail/thruster red to round it out :D

And this is the final #shiptember entry for today. It was originally meant to be for mining/conversion. It really didn't go the way I hoped so I just slapped it in the 'no-prompt' option for the 10th. It works simply as an image, but it's a failure in conveying clearly what it's meant to be...

It's nice to be at the point in my game where I can comfortable dedicate a day or two to something almost entirely cosmetic and not be worried about schedules. I've been wanting to do particle beam punch-through for years and now I finally have the time. #gamedev

SOLCOM. Siquijor-Class spacecraft with Orion. Equipped with massive sensors to find any target within Sol. Can't hit what you can't see. Setting where sneaky aliens invade our star system, so we spent more money on nukes or whatever. Bit late for shiptember but eh. ToughSF? Hmmm... defo not HardSF
Massive starship with massive sensors and an Orion Drive and radiators so SOLCOM can find enemy aliens and shoot them or something.

Day 7: Conversion “Once beholden to the star-crossed lance, Yathtuln the Adamant shed his mantle and turned his hearth inward. Millennia fire that once charged ghostlight and hate now warms our people. Yathtuln the Elderglade, blessed light of the Ori, is born.” #SST6 #spaceshiptember
An ancient treeship delivers itself from a long life of marauding and war by turning into a self sustaining habitat. It will eventually grow to the size of a dwarf planet and house billions of Earth’s descendants.

When the Topek entered service, there was doubt as to whether it could ever live up to the monumental legacy of the Coastwalkers it was notionally replacing The sentiment ceased upon the 4th hull, Walk To Home narrowly completing the single most improbable rescue operation in aerospace history
A small ship with a triangular cross section occupised the upper left third of the composition, which is primarily dominated by the upper atmosphere of a blue-hued gas giant serving as the background.

Thin white smoke billows from the tips of its triangular drive cone as a drive capsule of fusile material begins to go supercritical, pushing the ship one violent leap closer toward a flaming streak in the distant background, another ship who's drives suffered a severe engineering casualty during a critical maneuver and found itself tumbling into the gas giant's atmosphere toward almost certain death...almost

#spaceshiptember 05. I promise not to overuse floating rings, but they're something that repeatedly springs to mind when I'm thinking about spacecraft. This one is a drone used by mining vessels for surveying asteroids...
