Work-in-Progress [WIP] Design Thread

I'm going to build the Orion first, because it's a the top of the wiki page on the constellation mission.

You had the exact same idea I did, with the fairing!

Also, are you doing a Constellation replica?

Yep! It will be fun to see how you and Majorjim do the same things!

Don't forget Yukon, and DMSP. That's 5 whole Constellation replicas! Lord save us all!

That was a quiet joke :)

I would be okay with that, but I just don't really want everyone seeing all my stuff when it's not finished or beautified yet. If there's an alternative, that's cool.

Your Orion is looking great, by the way!

I thought it was a joke, but it's not a bad idea.

We could use PMs, but that would be a bit tricky.

Thanks!

Nobody has to show anything they don't want to. So a constellation discussion thread is a great idea.

I'll start it!

I'm nearing completion on my big colony pack, with my next important segment complete: The drilling rig for precious, precious Ore!

I've also started work on a new, smaller atmospheric VTOL to act as a pure-crew companion to my big cargo ones

Cargo VTOL: (The jet version of my previous one with the aerospikes)

Passenger VTOL:

I also realized that I needed a new transfer ship for Duna, so I whipped one up quickly.

It still needs testing, but my hopes are that the massive cargo capacity and giant heat/debris shield will keep it safe during Dunan aerocapture and possibly on aerocapture back at Kerbin. (Return trips, anyone?)

I finally completed my final venture on the Large Airliners Pack with the Grand Aerospatiale/BAC Concorde replica, getting it up to 500 m/s - way beyond my wildest expectations.

When it finally took off, it felt like the finale of Beethoven's Symphony 9 played in my head :D (Rep for anyone who gets it!)

Running out of rep prowess here :(

Thanks :)

Also, a "sub-project" I'm making - A Kamper Van! It is huge, by the way - An Mk3 could fit inside, so I made two floors :sticktongue:

What do you guys think I should fit the interiors with, other than seats?

Despite such size, collisions are still a thing, and are to be avoided.

The realistically deadly appearance of these collisions are so.. satisfying :P

Finally made a decent 1.0.2 SSTO! Meant for transporting up to six Kerbals around and gets to orbit will 1000 m/s of delta-V left.\

Plenty of thrust both in jet mode and rocket mode.

Rescuing a Kerbal for a contract. Must be my rival space program's failed SSTO attempt.:wink:

Ooh, I'm digging the design :D but hmmm, I would say you can improve on the aesthetic (based on my tastes :D) but meh, practicality wins at most :) Would you plan on developing this more? I'd like to give it a whack at the blueprints :D
