• There seems to be an up tick in Political commentary in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site we know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religiours commentary out of the fourms.

    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.

WIP and fun with rendering

Francois, this project is getting better every day. The Mulberry Harbor at Arromanches, better known as Mulberry B or Port Winston was in operation for 8 months. It was designed for only 3 months use. Anyone visiting the area can see large sections of the structure still there today.

Maybe you could set up some vehicle traffic to be moving along the floating roadway out and back from the ships. Don't know if this is possible but that would certainly get everyone's attention. Thanks for the continuing previews.
 
I will continue to 'show off'...... more to force myself to not give up than for anything else :icon_lol::icon_lol:

Not sure about the roadways....... the way I have built them now they are 6-piece scenery objects, not one long 'road'.
 
Don't ever think of giving up Francois, I very much like seeing your progress on this and you can always ask for help if you need it.
 
Thank you all kindly......... even for watching, certainly for offers to help ! I found out that some of these had AA-guns on them, so am now making a crude Oerlikon AA spout......

Francois, you may have mentioned this somewhere prior, but what program are you using for constructing your models? Great job, by the way. . .quite impressive.
 
The models I made so far are all done with Trimble's Sketchup (former Google). I have also started dabbling with 3DSMax, but that will be a Winter Project..... maybe to refine the current models in a later stage when I learn to use 3DS better. For now I use Sketchup (with Fireworks for texture mods), ModelconverterX and Instant Scenery 3.

Yep, same here. Nice work Francois.
