This is something else that I made for someone - for reasons that I'm not sure if I can divulge (so I won't), they wanted a working space station, capable of actually being built, and that is capable of building other vessels as well. The result is this:


The robotic arms are computer controlled (they're supposed to have three claws on them, but the model is killing my system as-is), much like an autoCAD assembaly line. The arms move back and forth on the trolleys below them, the big center groove is for a tank-like tread to carry them, while the things on the sides are for rollers. The large boxes are habitat modules, and the tubes connecting them are for people to walk through. This station will eventually have an internal layout, which A) is not my job right now, and B) I'm too lazy to do anyway, but I was just wondering what you guys, artistically, thought of it. It's all done in Sketchup.
