Assault Scout WIP 3

Description

Updated 11 December 2014

More progress on the Explorer class Assault Scout, based on the Star Frontiers RPG. Texturing on the outer hull is mostly complete. I am putting together a stowable radiator and solar PV array for the exterior.  I went with the bank of windows on Deck 3.  The reason why the windows on Deck 2 are closer to the ones on Deck 1 is that they are biased towards the bow because of the forward facing viewport of the flight deck. (For reasons of hull shape, I chose to put the Flight Deck on Deck 2 vice Deck 1). Star Frontiers gets points for a setting where spacecraft decks are aligned perpendicular to the thrust axis, and the Assault Scout is the quintessential Atomic Rocket, but their 'science' was always pretty dodgy. This design is an attempt to rectify that and still remain true to the source material.
