Galaxy Class - Main Shuttle Bay WIP

I'm working on a build of the Galaxy Class Main Shuttle bay for a comic I'm working on. I was going to build the Shuttlebay 2 and 3 complex that Ed Whitefire had laid out in his initial blue prints, but after some initial frustrations with getting that laid out to work with the slant of the hull (something they definitely didn't do in the series) I started eyeing the main shuttle bay and realized with as much as I'm planning on using shuttles, it'd make more sense to use that bay anyway. Plus it's big enough for runabouts. ;)

So I'm in the middle of actually laying everything out and carving up the basic shapes before I even think of detailing everything, that way I know it'll all fit and I'll have less headaches when I start loading it up in DAZ Studio for actual use. This is all being built in Truespace 3.

I've had to fudge a little bit and I'm making a few changes, some because either I'm confused on the blueprints or they just aren't going to fit together as drawn, and some that just boil down to personal preference, but it's going to be a monster of a set when it's done. :)
 
This is worth a look if you haven't seen it already...

It includes a walk through Shuttlebay 1.

I have, thanks. :)

There's another one with a slightly different take on it but it was up on Foundation 3D which isn't up at the moment. :(
