• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Chipmunk

Thank you for the heads-up, Naki! I'm looking forward to following its development. It will be nice to see a brand new take on the Chipmunk.

Speaking of DH Chipmunks, there have been seven at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh this week, all parked together.

Hey John, are you still modeling?
Not really, Ted. I've still got my P-39Q and B-25J in 3DS Max, that I pull out every now and then and plug a bit more work into. However, it's hard to remain motivated with them for very long, especially with how much time simply evaporates when one gets into 3D modeling. I know I should get back into it again - the P-39 internal model has been about 99% completed, and the external model is probably about 85% completed (namely just gear wells to do), I just need to focus some energy to it again. These days, with how complex texturing has become, I'm still using modeling software on a daily basis to load other people's models to paint.

I've been out of it for years now (P3Dv3). I almost forgot how to use PS. I got a spark in November 2024 and shot some images over to Manfred to see if he was interested in reviving his C-117D. I wanted to give the Super the same detail I did with the C-47. He, being retired and all, gave it a shot, and it panned out well. It's a slow drag because my motivation wanes, but I get spurts working on it. I'm testing the Materialize program as of late. I may get into MSFS later this year.
