Sneaky preview!

Very quickly, here's a picture of some dropships I made, with various uses.

I'll do a bigger post tomorrow, promise!

It's not all about space!

Hello again! I must admit, I'm bored with reality. I don't always understand the point of making something that's already been made, hence why a lot of my designs are spaceships. Of course, it could be that I'm just not good enough to accurately replicate things, but hey. But, every now and then, I get the urge to build something that works, or something that's real, or perhaps just looks nice. So, with that in mind, may I humbly present some designs that are more...down to earth?

A concept for an idea, a stackable apartment block that could have as many or as few levels as was required, and was modular to build.

The finished article, not as high, but it can be fitted with as many floors as necessary.  it comes in several main modules. the main 'skin' of a floor, the apartments within it, the stairs and corridors connecting them and a roof.

A model I love, it's a dream house of mine, with a balcony, pool and library.  I made a full interior  for this one, and hopefully I shall show you more of it one day.

A practice at building terrain, and my first real use of  of using 'intersect' to cut through irregular shapes, its a...zoo? Or a park, maybe? I imagine it at the centre of a futuristic enclosed city.

An earlier terrain practise, mountains this time. And then I built a castle on it, and added a spaceport, because it's where the space pirates live. Ok, so maybe it is all about space :P

Everybody listen to this, NOW!

Right, lets start as we mean to go on! With a bunch of models! Some of these are new, some are old, they're just pictures I had laying around.

A tank of some sort, in camo colours

A mech, with the first half decent legs I ever made

One of my later models, and one I really like, an assault shuttle. I  actually made a full interior with this one, I may do a post on it another day.

First!

Hello and welcome, one and..well, probably just one, but we all have to start somewhere, eh? I'm Steve, and in my spare time I like to build things in 3d. I use Google SketchUp, which I heartily recommend you get if you haven't already. the models aren't great, or detailed (or even finished sometimes!) but hopefully you will enjoy them. Comments and questions are welcome, and encouraged.

Cheers!

Steve
