It's been awhile, but Vulkan sure knows how to up the ante on 3D models. The basics are very similar to 3D extrapolation of the 2D I was already doing, and I used a .ktx model for the satellite.
The difference? Well, the triangle was originally a set of points, so automatically loading VertexInputStates, buffers, device memory, and storing the information such as vertices and indices in contiguous memory structures was key. Definitely more than a triangle's worth!
And it's worth it; I'm also quite grateful to the creators of Assimp to make the mesh loading side so painless, even with model types like .ktx:
3D models covered! Now to see what else I can do.
