1. I plan to build a spaceship for my inventor project. I have built spaceships before in this class, but none to the detail and complexity I wanted. I want to create more smooth, aerodynamic shapes similar to the pictures above and below. Using my new skills in the free form mode in inventor, I believe this is possible. My ship will be more focused on future transport rather than combat, as I already have made many rugged fighter ships in my past. I will combine design elements from modern jets and luxury cars to create a futuristic spaceship.
2. To make this spaceship I will have to get better at using the free form modeling features. This means I will have to watch video tutorials and ask for help often. I plan to use YouTube to find the tutorials. I will also have to learn the basics of aircraft modeling in inventor. I have found a video that will help me learn this skill. It covers the basics of designing fuselages, wings, and engines.
Colton helped me make this
Here is video
3. I will sketch a basic plan that I will present to the teacher and will use it as a reference while I am building. I will also use the above pictures for reference. My final product will be marked for its level of detail, accurate dimensions, and ascetic appeal. I will demonstrate my skills in free form modeling and my ability to finish a complex project.
