Anyone every consider making a version of skylab that has both solar panels and the micrometeorite shield that broke off during the launch? It would be interesting to see what Skylab should have looked like in orbit had the launch mishap not occured.
 
I'd kinda like one of these myself... If I could texture worth a crap I'd give makeing one a try. I'm slow but steadily working on modeling skills. But texturing for me right now is more like voodoo science. I just can't "get" it right now.
 
I did one several years ago when we all still over at M6. I uploaded it to the guys at Meadville to use with NASSP, but I think when they tried to downsize the scope of the add on, my Skylab II fell by the wayside. Unless someone there still has the files, it's gone for good (the PC I had all that stuff on fried itself 2 or 3 years ago).

I just tried to find some of the images that should've been archived with M6, but I can't seem to find a working link.

I don't think it would look that diferent... Of course, 2 solar panels, but the rest of the station would be the same (minus the improvised solar shield).
Skylab B looks quite similar to me. Don't know if it was painted to resemble to resemble the actual flight model or if it was originally like that. I used it as reference the Skylab repaint I did some time ago.
