Trying to identify a spacecraft

Hello,

Can anyone help me identify the spacecraft/escape pod that is used in the promo image from KindredArts Jurassic FX?

Thanks in advance for any replies.

    It is a part of a much larger set: XI Exo Suit Hanger. Unfortunately, none of the promo shots show the pod by itself. It doesn't have a hatch, actually, which is rather odd for the vacuum of space.

    Thanks Northof45. Sucks about having no hatch, though.

    While not quite the same, both of these escape pod type spacecraft have hatches:

    You could create a 5cm long cylinder primitive of the right diameter, pivot it at the extreme top and apply a glass shader. That way it could work for you as a closure with little or no modelling.

    There is somehow a hatch, but in a different part of the set in a sub part, that is not its own prop, but its's own object:XI EH EscapePod Room.
    You would need to tinker with the geometry editor to extract it. You can see the whole setup in the second promo image https://www.daz3d.com/xi-exo-suit-hanger :

    This is what I came up with, after deleting the unneeded geometry, then scaling the hatch and moving it into position. The opening is not round, but oval. And I deleted the hinge mechanism.

    How did I miss this one? EEP - Emergency Evacuation Pod is a decent substitute. Only found it (again, wishlisted almost 6 months ago and since forgotten) because the PA has a new release (Digivault Productions, formerly The Digivault)

    Perhaps it uses a flat forcefield instead of a hatch.  Similar to what is used in the shuttlebay on starship Enterprise.enlightened indecision

    Another alternative vehicle could be the Steampunk Time Machine - https://www.daz3d.com/steampunk-time-machine​ .
