• 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.

My first WIP. Criticism? Yes Please!

Thanks, I'll try that.

I was trying just now to export in 3DStudio and it seems like it's making progress, then I get a pop up screen that says "Export host is not valid". Then one that says "Export model failed" - or something like that.

Hrmph. This is getting old...
 
I thought I'd post a few more pictures of my progress. The entire model is exported into Gmax - except the door handles, not sure how I missed those.

The glass is not present in these pics because I haven't textured anything yet and I wanted to be able to see out for the test flight.

The model is just standing in for one of my other planes currently for FSX viewing purposes.

Nothing is animated either.

She's still oversized and flying backwards. I tried a resizing method that Mathias recommended (thanks again!), but it didn't take. I'll have to retrace my steps and see where it messed up.

The yoke and the front tire need some cleaning up at the mesh level, but I've made more progress in the last 2 hours of work than I had the entire previous week...
