Hi fellow Kerbals,
I am a Propulsion Physicist currently writting a LinkedIn article on gas core open cycle Nuclear Thermal Propulsion among other things and looking to make a realistic rendering of how this spacecraft might look like with several educated guesses. I'm not making money out of this and don't have the budget to hire a digital artist so looking to make it with KSP1.
Does anyone know if there is already a modeled gas core open cycle NTP spacecraft for KSP 1 that I can use as a base template?
I'm aiming for a high quality render with Saturn as the backdrop, I've installed Nertea's Near Future Propulsion, Kerbal Atomics and Far Future Technologies mods. I looked around for other recommended mods to enhance KSP1 visuals, any particular mods you can recommend for this task? I'm relatively new to KSP and still geting my head around it.
Any advice much appreciated, thanks for your time. The article still in the works is located on LinkedIn if anyone's interested:
