The prompt
Create a fully functional, parametric, 3D-printable protective case for the Apple iPad Pro 11-inch, 3rd generation (2021). Design style: Inspired by the industrial spacecraft interiors of the USCSS Nostromo from Alien (1979). Use rugged retro-futuristic geometry, layered armor-like panels, recessed grooves, exposed-looking screws, reinforced corners, ventilation details, and chunky industrial forms. Avoid sleek minimalist styling and excessive decorative details. Key features: * Precise tablet fit with accurate cutouts for the camera, buttons, USB-C port, speakers, and microphones. * An integrated, reinforced suitcase-style carrying handle with a comfortable grip. * A built-in longitudinal compartment inside or along the handle for an Apple Pencil, with secure retention and easy removal. * Strong structural connections, rounded edges, and suitable FDM 3D-printing tolerances. Technical requirements: Use editable parameters for wall thickness, tablet clearance, handle dimensions, and stylus-channel size. Optimize geometry for strength, minimal supports, and practical assembly. Deliverables: A complete editable CAD model, STL files for 3D printing, and front, rear, side, and isometric views. Priority: The Nostromo aesthetic must be reflected in the actual geometry, not just surface textures. The result must be mechanically functional, ergonomic, durable, and manufacturable—not merely a visual concept.
