As his first Advanced Manual Superfab Operation came to an end, Ves gained a good understanding of the state of his students.
Few of them were as bad or unpracticed as Klaus Robar-Fulton.
The average proficiencies displayed by all of the Terran mech design students fully satisfied Ves. He was confident in his ability to transform each of them into part-time artists who knew how to elevate their mechs into good quality works rather than standard fare.
Ves found rather perplexing that the wealthy Terrans did not prioritize good craftsmanship so much, at least when it came to mechs.
He expected a society that was mainly dominated by long-lasting clans and organization to pursue quality over quantity.
However, as materializers continued to penetrate more and more aspects of their industries, there were fewer opportunities for notable artisans to practice their crafts and earn renown for their artistic skills.
