I like the design, but the idea behind a solar sailor is the solar winds are the engine... (Slow... and really no one would want to be on one except is they had lots of DVD's or Netflix could deliver to them....) Litterally like a sailing ship in many ways, or a parachute in reverse heading out of the solar system...
And the solar sail panels would need to huge..... (granted thin...)
So maybe in name only, and if that is the case, then the ship is pretty neat.
(And if you are already aware of this... sorry, me shut up then.)

Just reminded me of it. The ship dosent emphsise its size. Perhaps because every part of it is huge in scale. Maybe if you added a hatch or window it could give a better impression of size, most people need refrence to tell.
Just my 2 cents but awsome work. Coming from a person who has struggled with Zbrush I have to say you 3d guys blow my mind sometimes.

ye you got right about hatch or something that help understand the scale...
This is my 3D model that is not bad... I still need lot of learn about, but for now iam happy from this ship. Soon I made more I hope will be better and better
