What I tried today#
I was wondering how would the hatch look like and it naturally came to me it should open from the center. Either front or back gould work, but I think the animation is more interesting if it’s opened from the back, and you can climb into the seat and see the monitors etc.

What worked#
Getting more used to Blender at this point so the block meshes are not so hard to create.
And what didn’t#
I didn’t have time to properly manage the hierarchy of the objects in the blender scene. It’s getting really messy and I’m a bit concerned about how much clean up or duplicate work I need to do later to make production ready assets… I guess that’s a long way ahead anyway.
