I would be happy to.

I suggest studying the great SF artists of the pre-Star Wars era.

That list would be.

Western Artists:
Chris Foss

Peter Elson

Gerry Anderson

Ralph McQuarrie

Matt Jefferies

Robert Caswell

Eastern Artists:

Leiji Matsumoto

Shoji Kawamori

Jun Okuda

Kazutaka Miyatake

What I mean by study, is just Bing or Google their names, and check out their artwork.

Then start by learning the general shapes of their designs, and then fill in with your own details.

Do not copy them directly (unless it is purely for practice on your own).

Be sure to use real world sources for inspiration as well.

NASA

Janes Periodicals online

Any source of artwork or technical drawings will help you learn about the shapes, designs, looks, colors, and textures of spacecraft.

Learning about various components will help you pick and choose what ones you want your ships to use.

Very nice.  I haven't been in for 23 years, but I was an AFSC 2W2X1 under Lt. Col. Charles Tutwiler.

Beautiful base, but I never liked Shreveport back then (too much crime and too many yahoos that want to fight servicemen).

Used to be a Bar&Grill out there called "Coyote's" or "Cowboy's" (don't remember anymore) that was the source of many a Commander's Call about underage girls and the trouble they were causing airmen.  Great food though.

I think that is a banned bar. There are a lot of places Airman cant go here now! The city isnt much better but we found a nice area outside of base that isnt decrepit

Wow, they've banned them now?  They should have done that back in the 1990s, would have prevented a lot of problems.
Glad you found some nice places to go.
I didn't get off base much, I used to volunteer for medical training detail (to meet the nurses I admit. ), and using chicken bones and fake blood on old flightsuits was fun.  Especially when they'd do the airlift scenario or you got to play a crazy man with a fake hand grenade trying to sneak in and blow up the GP tent.  It was a lot of fun.

Thank you, Kelso323,

I'm sorry I haven't been able to finish any new Star Trek models yet.
I've working on the Nexus Arcana EVA suits (Very hard to do, especially the female types).
I do have a Klingon model I'm working on, but it has not been mapped or textured.

When it is, I will upload it to SFCorpsofEngineers.

Perhaps one gallery for non-Star Trek SF related starships?
I'd certainly add my Nexus Arcana fleeets there.

Believe me, I fully understand how time and other commitments can occupy your attentions; eve if you are unable to submit new works, I still humbly request that as time permits you submit what you have already created as we all endeavor to reassemble the community archives. Thank you for your efforts and we look forward to enjoying what you are able to bring before the community.
