Nice work HS

I second that - it's official, the ACC hereby looses two members

You mean you were a newbie when you started this project years ago, HS :d But seriously, it looks fantastic!! How long did it take you to master those skills??

 

[crossram]

Well done! Your detailing is nice, and well made.

Is that a Tempest MkII?

 

[Starspeeder_3000]

Wow, that is really good! I believe it's an early model of the Hawker Sea Fury. I can't wait to see how this progresses!

:redf: Thank you chaps, but I am a newbie - this is the fourth attempt at building this and I started over a year ago. Credit has to go to the best tutorials out there - Bit Map to Boom'n'Zoom, Hugh Shoults' Stupid Idiot's Guide to gmax and Milton Shupe's C-162 tutorials. Viso, you have no idea what you've started!

I learned most from Milton's material (see the Aircraft Design and Animation forum here at SOH) and there's still an awful lot to do - VC, LODs, damage and flight model and I haven't even started mapping and skinning yet.

Oh well, back to the old drawing board. And well done the man on the Bay, it is a Tempest mark II.

It's always great to see someone new jump into the 3D modeling fray. Congratulations on sticking with your subject and I'll look forward to seeing the finished bird in flight.
