Bonus Spaceship! - WIP #24 (Patreon)

Hello there!

It occurred to me that I'd forgotten to post a few shots, so here they are. It's the usual process by which I use 3D assistance for my spaceship shots, except this time I got extra fancy (by my standards) and modelled some mountains too!

Then it was a case of hand colouring it all and inking in a load of details. The results look quite nice, I think. Please excuse the Youtube compression! I'll rework the render because it's looking very crisp and smooth on my end but not when I uploaded for some reason. Anyway-

Just for fun, I did a mockup of size comparisons of all the ships. The Dalek ship is way smaller than I thought! And both of them are much much smaller than the ship from Alien: Monday. That thing is a flying brick and definitely not designed to be landing on any planets, unless they have anti-gravity tech in the Alien universe.

The Earth ship lands on planets NASA (or Kerbal Space Program) style - conventional rocket fuel, aerobraking in atmosphere to show down, then coasting down to land like a space shuttle or spaceplane, with extra drogue chutes and landing jets for uneven surfaces.The Dalek ship uses fancy Dalek science and a graviton inversion engine to basically invert gravity, with a few actual propulsion jets thrown in for good measure (good to have because you never know).

Well, that's enough nerding out for now!
