Crusin' Further

I think it's about 90% finished. But that last 10% will take a while...

Crusin'

Some work on Servalan's cruiser

Change of project: BLAKES 7

I'm going to work on a different project for Celestia for a while -- some of the spacecraft seen in the BBC television program BLAKES 7. Above is a view of the DSV-2 Liberator.

Have fun!

almost ready to "declare victory"

I haven't been able to spend much time on the Hale Telescope project in recent months. Although there are many more things I could implement, I think that only a couple of them will actually be added before I release it for use with Celestia. As in previous years, I intend to make it available just before Christmas.

In the meantime, I've assembled another "alpha" release for anyone who'd like to try it. The Zip file is 18MB. It expands to 87MB when installed.

Please let me know if you'd like to give it a try.

crane cable drums

Yeah, it's been a while. I've been distracted by other things.

A while ago, I received a picture of the backside of the overhead crane. Examination revealed that I'd left out some rather important components. I've enhanced the model to include its cable drums.

Double Spec

I've been struggling with a low-poly model of the double spectrograph. I can't quite get its proportions right. But here is what it looks like for now.
