Title: Mars or Bust!
Post by: Arik_the_Red on August 21, 2011, 12:32:00 am

Well, I've been out of touch for awhile. Now getting back into the 3D bit... I was recruited to design a Mars Lander for a video project.

Check out this thing in the works... Will have more thruster rockets and related details soon.

When finished, the  lander will descend to the Martian surface, land and open up "flower petal" style, releasing a rover type vehicle.

Some of the other images in that photobucket show rough ideas for the Mars Lander stages.

Also, some preliminary basic mock-up experiments to be found here:

Looking good Arik. But then again most of your stuff does. Glad to see you still churning out excellence.
Keep it up.

Looking forward to the final product.

liz, thanks for your reply. I appreciate your comments very much.

Sorry I was slow to respond... My brain slipped somewhere in the mud ;-)
