AstroMaster & StarJet Alternate Cockpit Ideas

SemiLucidStudios

Hello,

   As Kibarreto's StarJet and Astromaster have cockpits that are seperate products, I thought there might be room for additional, alternate cockpit layout products.  

   I could see both ships being outfitted for more seating in a 'small passenger jet' kind of configuration, and alternatively in a 'long haul trucker/motorhome' kind of way with bunks, small kitchenette, and small lavatory.

   I started kitbashing with the regular StarJet interior just to see how the seating might work for a commercial transport, but my skills are far below what would be needed to actually finish this - but multiple interior layout options would be a must-buy for me.

I think this is a great idea!

Having spent most of my working life in the aviation industry, I'm used to seing identical aircraft with completely different interiors. It would therefore make sense for the futrue manufactures of spacecraft to do the same.

For me I like the space motorhome idea. High load passenger configurations are interesting, but unless your passengers are clones (and can be loaded as instances) a full cabin will result in a very slow CPU render. However, a motorhome style cabin, built for four chacaters and kitted out for a long voyage, would work very well. Often my renders are based around stories, and this style of cabin would fit in perfectly. Also, with only a few characters there should not be too much load on the rendering process.

Sadly, at the moment, I also lack to skill to produce something like this...

I would be very interested in alternate interiors as well, especially if it came with poses for the add on interiors.

You could create an add-on for the StarJet !!
