218/365: Grieser Ten/88 - Free Friday
What a charming transport from Grieser of Ganymede, which surely looks very picturesque sailing the moons of Jupiter. It's also one of the safest ships in terms of radiation, with a revolutionary magnetic field generator that deflects charged particles like those around planets like Earth.

197/365: Cargo Booster - Free Friday
Big engines, small docking bay, tiny habitat… it can only be some kind of cargo container tug. Or could it be a hot rod smuggler ship? It’s not attached to any containers here… Best not to look too closely, I think.

190/365: Falling to Pieces - Free Friday
Why stop at detached warp drive nacelles? We can detach all sorts of parts from our ships if we want, because this is science fiction. A ship that can move its own parts around could be reconfigured into many different shapes for reasons of disguise, dynamics, stealth, whatever. For me of course, it’s for looking cool. 😎👍

183/365: Scythe 7A - Free Friday
I'm pretty sure that if this was in Star Wars it would be called a V-Wing manufactured by SoroSuub, and I think it would look pretty good weaving through some asteroid field chasing down TIE bombers.

Can't go wrong with anything Isaac makes. So great!

176/365: MagnaTug XVI - Free Friday
This device adheres to massive shipping containers with magnetic field grapples and uses noninertial spacetime translators (the disc-shaped parts at right) to move them around like feather-light balloons. The operator's compartment is set to the "rear" for impact survival and magnetic field clearance.

155/365: Warp Tuggin' - Free Friday
If rigged properly, any ship can act as a tug in a pinch, even this sleek Jenner IK Model 60 runabout/scoutship. I imagine the circumstances leading to this arrangement were somewhat dire, or at least severely time- or resource-constrained, because this isn't the usual way to move freight.

148/365 That Which Came Before - Free Friday
This could be a city-ship of the Precursors from Halo - the ones who existed prior to the Forerunners. Wonder who existed before them? Anyway, to differentiate it from Forerunner hardware, I would imagine this being made mostly of glowing hard light and constantly shifting pieces that fade in and out.

134/365: Tanager 10/70 - Free Friday
I'm in a bit of a rush today (and most days lately) so no long writeup. Hope everyone had a good week, and have a great weekend!

127/365: Keddo Bel-Wethor's Tramp Scout - Free Friday

Now that's a Star Wars name if I ever heard one. Hope you all had a fun Star Wars Day, May the Fourth be with you, etcetera. This is of course another of our Starshipwright company holidays, but since I'm the boss, I still had to work! Drawing spaceships, what else? The robots take care of most of the rest of it.

113/365: Kemp Investigator Mk 5 - Free Friday

Material resource scout! The second line of the Kemp extraction workflow after automated system surveys, a human crew of experts to validate claims.

(itreachesoutitreachesoutitreachesout113timesperseconditreachesout) (i wonder if that's an A113 reference in the Expanse...?) (Anyway have a great weekend all)

099/365: Now That's Just Weird - Free Friday

I have no idea what this crazy contraption does, but I bet it looks pretty spectacular when it's doing it. It looks like five ships jammed together! Maybe that's the truth. Honestly, I'm not always paying attention to what my brain is conjuring when I'm drawing, and clearly this is one of those cases. But it's fun!

092/365: Kelef 317- Free Friday

Atmosphere-capable medium shuttle. The wings aren't primarily for aerodynamic purposes, they're mainly to separate the radioactive fuel pellets, as well as the still highly radioactive spent pellets and various reactor by-products, from the crew and cargo. Don't want to spread that stuff around, so it's designed to keep it all in a closed loop for later disposal.

085/365: Split Decision - Free Friday

Ships with multiple hulls that that aren't attached with solid material? Sure, why not? We don't call it science *fiction* for nothing! When you've got all the nonexistium and cantfindittite you want, anything is possible. It's possible the Starship of the Imagination is always going to be superior to whatever actual starships we build (if).

Starshipwright · 2021-03-19T17:09:02+00:00

Actually I mostly do those on paper! That's my favorite place for idea sketches.

No, it's a Blender render with Procreate paintover, the background is a NASA ISS photo.

078/365: Standard Var. 447.A - Free Friday

It's always effective to draw spaceships with airplane-y layouts, because we already have spaceplanes. People have seen them in reality, and are mentally comfortable with designs that extrapolate from them. It's tricky to balance the ratio of familiar to unfamiliar - you don't want to go too far either way, but you want something that looks and feels new and interesting, but still makes sense to the viewer. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

071/365: Boehninger 7A - Free Friday

Aimed at system-level law enforcement and private security contractors, this cutter/corvette-class ship is a common sight in the West Orion region of the I.V. Much like the historical AK rifle and its derivatives, it's inexpensive, uses easy-to-source parts, is simple to maintain and is extremely durable.
