Description
I've been looking at old NASA designs, and I'm trying to get this to look like something that was designed in the late 1960s/early 1970s. Also, hoping there's a bit of a "2001: a Space Odyssey" look to it.

Very cool! Saw that in the background of you last image and was hoping for a closer look.
Great work!! nice to see.
Very evocative of 2001 and always, your modeling work is superb -- very reminiscent of designs of the late Apollo pre-shuttle era, well done!
Ah, the good old days of the future! Interesting to look back on it now. Great work on it.
There certainly is, well done :)
oh yes
Very cool. I remember this look from a study of Lunar exploration ships. This would land vertically and the crew and material would exit from a door near the bottom. For all you nigglys out there that question the word door. Doors are set in the bulkheads and allow horitzonal passage, Hatches are set in the deck and overhead and allow vertical passage.
very nice space craft
One of the things I love about your work is how clean and effortless you make it look. This is no exception.
wonderful tribute to 1970s SSTO designs
Fit so well in the Nasa archive... well done !
Fantastic Work
Very nice. Love the Space 1999 look. Texture work is the worst for me and you carried it off perfectly.
