Jon also wanted a smooth surface free of clutter and minor details, bolts and such. Normally I can just make a concept sketch and get to work but this one was difficult for some reason. Even after the concept sketch that Jon signed off on, I still found myself unable to jell the idea in my head. Perhaps it was my sweet dog Maggie passing. Perhaps such a large model without surface detail intimidated me. Whatever the cause it took a while to find my Design-Fu. In the end, the “Fu” flowed and I was able to give Jon something we were both happy with. You can see from the component view that its a dual layer turret, each can fire at different targets.
