A piece as promotion for the starship i designed
The schematic i made for the si chi ying starfighter. helping the Devs with the in game ready asset for it
sketching in 3D, the first block out of the design
using software to stress test a lot of the mechaincal parts of the ship
more 3D sketching......starting to visualize a more final design
main hull is starting to come alive
main hull is aproved
reworking some details
using the schematics provided to adjust details
there it is.....main hull final
the engine
here is the si chi ying ship collapsed and expanded

This is the Si Chi Ying starfighter i designed for the game starfighter Inc. from impeller studios.
I usually start my concept development by blocking out the base idea I have on how the ship is going to look, starting off with the size and design/style behind it. I experiment with various ideas and we discuss what will work best. After the blockout and some back and forth between me, Charlie, Zach and David, I start working on the main hull of the ship.
For propulsion Zach designed the ship with cascade vane thrusters. These are really interesting in that they can produce thrust in almost any direction. This is due to the closeable shutters at the end of the GCNR engines. These act like the thrust reversers on modern jet engines, but can direct it to a much greater extent.
