Touch on the small side - might be a good mining station.
Merciful Father, I have squandered my days with plans of many things. This was not among them. But at this moment, I beg only to live the next few minutes well. For all we ought to have thought, and have not thought; all we ought to have said, and have not said; all we ought to have done, and have not done; I pray thee God for forgiveness.

Holy Crap! I like this! This is the best work I've seen you do yet! Hot Damn, that's nice!

Cae is right.. it's a mining station for sure.

I've got a project for you now. *rubs hands together* Let me get my thoughts collected, and I'll post in the "Requested models" section about it. It's another space station.

Ok, I'll give it a shot, but it will be slightly more difficult without visuals, but like I said, I will see what I can do with it first.

If you get stuck on the visuals, just send me a message over the private message system (or IM me) and I'll see if I can throw together some concepts.

Ok, what I'll probably do is: try it once first (which I have no idea how it will turn out), and then possibly a second time, and if I can't get close enough to what you guys are thinking, then I might need a few sketches.

That's cool - it'd take me a few weeks to get the sketches ready.

Ok, np. In the mean time, here is a design I finished up for the space station [prometheus].  The textures are similiar and some are the same, but I used them again to try to establish a dark, fortified feel.  Tell me what you think (also, there is a much larger thruster on the bottom in case you were wondering why the thrusters were so small):

I like the design - is it possible to post multiple angles of the model?

Uhhuh, I'll do that now.

*EDIT*- Here are a few more comprehensive angles of the structure, if you need to see more let me know:

I do like it quite a bit... however, I'm feeling it's a little too jumbled, compared to what's in my head... I'm going to sketch some ruff ideas, and post them in that other thread... Keep this one around though.. I have ideas for it.

Once you get those rought sketches done, I'll try and knock out a few myself in a coupla weeks. 

Oh, and morgul - I've got some homework and such to do tomorrow, but I'm gonna try to get a shitload of stuff done on the Archigos - maybe even a colored pencil sketch.  Any particular color scheme you want?

I should have the sketches to Contingency by friday - after that, it's his responsibility to get them scanned in for me.
