Description
I never really liked the design of Arcturus Station in the comic books, but have spent the last couple years trying and failing to come up with my own version - something more like a Stanford Torus style station like the lore describes. Well, thanks to the amazing megastructures tutorial Ian Hubert did on his Patreon (go support him like yesterday!!!) I finally got the inspiration I needed to make the thing like I wanted. Not only that, but I was able to do it with barely a hitch on my computer, thanks to his memory saving tips with linked instances and whatnot, otherwise this would have taken more than the last couple days to make simply from the sheer amount of memory the ship copies take up.

Station modeled in Blender.
Space, flare, ambience, and final touches in Photoshop.
