Hello, all you glorious Escapists!
(PLEASE NOTE) I have now decided on a design I will use. If there is anything else you would like to contribute then feel free to do so; there are many other opportunities in the story for designs and technology ideas to flourish.
Otherwise, thankyou to everyone who got involved, and now I need to go get on with the writing!
This is a simple enough request/challenge/fun-thing to do that I decided to ask the community:
I am currently writing a sci-fi novel, and one of the things I do in order to add depth, continuity and realism to my story is design, concept and plan everything before I write about it. For example, concept art on planets, people, timelines and descriptions on areas and history, etc.
But what I need right now is a cool-looking design of a ship. It can look anyway you want, but there a few base ideas that it needs to incorporate, and are hopefully used in its design!
1. It is a prototype ship owned by a military.
2. It is built for speed and agility rather then power.
3. It is big enough for 10-3 people. (For example, the Normandy from mass effect is too big, but the Ebon Hawk from KoToR is roughly the correct size).
4. It needs all the facilities required for a small group of people to live comfortably aboard for months at a time.
And that is all! Your drawing doesn't have to be amazing, it's just the ideas and designs I'm concerned about! Feel free to post your ideas here or PM me for further contact!
(Disclaimer - If I don't like any of the ideas I may not use any of them; Additionally, I may take an idea I like and shape it into something that fits my story better. Any design that is used in anyway will be credited!)
Thanks!
