Hi all! I created this massive(3000+ items) free and opensource repository of links to 3d resources, both free and paid. I hope you find it useful! GitHub repo- https://github.com/devanshutak25/3d-resources

Taking inspiration from @Lee Kolb work. My interpretation of Rocket Lab new Gauss Hall electric thruster. UV unwrapped blender - took a while .Textures done in Substance Painter - and rendered back in Blender - with some AI info chart work.

I tried one way back when I first got Plasticity and it kind of kicked my ass. So I wanted to see with all that I've learned since how I'd get on with no training wheels and see where I am. Not too bad for a few hours on the weekend. Plan to bring it into Blender for proper renders and there is still some piping--fillets I need to do for it to be complete.

Animation clip from NASA MoonBEAM (Moon Burst Energetics All-sky Monitor) animation - showing proposed spacecraft to detect gamma ray bursts. Animation in Blender, spacecraft modeled in Plasticity/Blender.

New views of Hall Effect thruster mounted on 2 cubesats. Built with Plasticity, rendered in Blender 5.1
