On this I had many ideas in my mind, from past ideas and seeing things in the lecture, as well as looking around at the shapes of different objects around my house. I decided to start simple by sketching out some different ideas very roughly, capturing the basic shape, I would then choose my favourite shape/concept and take it forward.
After I made the initial sketches I sat down and did some research, looking at different ships and thinking of fundamental points in the concept and design of the ship, as well as the world it fits in. I made a list of questions to help me think the concept through.
I took my favourite design and did some blueprint drawings of it from the top, side and front. I also pencilled in some of the ship's layout and worked out the scale of each section compared to the average person. The ship I designed is a 4 or 5 person shuttle.
I then decided to do some sketches from a mock-up 3D model I built in order to add some smaller details, such as adding parts to the outside of the ship, for example guns or shield generators. I also did a base colour drawing in order to start working out colour relationships.
I finally did some lighting test using the metal ray renderer and sky-dome lighting.
