TD25 tractor

took one of the coolest static tractor around 

and check it in to be drivable to stroll around new scenery. 

a simple project

wip imgs

 

added some animations

 

even tested some added carts!

stay tuned

backburner stuff: CV880F HJG (un-official) fsx/p3d conversion sneak peek

 been very very  busy in commercial "NDA" projects... but wanted to post something special, this is

just a study how much takes to bring and old bird mesh into new standards,

adding a VC, and reusing its textures gauges and most of geometry as the goals to accomplish...

well lot of ins and outs but shure community needs some 880/990 convair love
this baby has a lot of stuff added wingflex, lights,  revisited gears and animations, etc

this is completely unpublished and HJG has beta tested with a nice feedback

hopefully we can make some smoke trails soon

C130 static mesh

i would like to share this nice commissioned mesh under 3500 polys in some development states

 

it's easy to realize why military stuff are more documented online by huge fan base and enthusiasts

most of draw views profiles and pictures avaliable are in good resolution

that really allows to model and texture conviently 

 

"The Lockheed C-130 Hercules is a four-engine turboprop military transport aircraft designed and built originally by Lockheed (now Lockheed Martin). Capable of using unprepared runways for takeoffs and landings, the C-130 was originally designed as a troop, medevac, and cargo transport aircraft. The versatile airframe has found uses in a variety of other roles, including as a gunship (AC-130), for airborne assault, search and rescue, scientific research support, weather reconnaissance, aerial refueling, maritime patrol, and aerial firefighting. It is now the main tactical airlifter for many military forces worldwide. More than 40 variants of the Hercules, including a civilian one marketed as the Lockheed L-100, operate in more than 60 nations." -Wikipedia

 this is how the occlusion looks ( with some minor errors)

diffuse map ( very useful for selecting areas on your painting)

i like to render on different stages because HQ renders can reveal mesh or texture flaws easily

besides, they are fun

suddenly, the model required was the -30 version wich is longer... so we stretched the fuse and went on trough the rendering to texture again just on the fuse

im not too confident yet with my paints but i can recognize a nice effort here

thank's a lot for passing by

GM Medium Fuel Truck

Scenery static under 10k polys!

yes, it has sort of interior, AM-FM is standard

paint overkill by GLC

see you space cowboys!

Metro / tp88 /erieye static mesh

"The Fairchild Swearingen Metroliner (previously the Swearingen Metro and later Fairchild Aerospace Metro) is a 19-seat, pressurized, twin-turboprop airliner first produced by Swearingen Aircraft and later by Fairchild at a plant in San Antonio, Texas, United States." pictured here is the "TP 88 - Metro III (two aircraft) delivered to the Swedish Air Force for use as a VIP transports. The first was delivered in 1984, and this was replaced by the second (TP 88B) in 1986 and remained in use until 1993. A third dubbed TP 88C, was acquired in 1987 and was used for Erieye/FS-890 AEW trials." Going to the Paint Hangar

Not Dead Yet!

Thank you guys! we're getting back on the tracks

N195PA !

Built in 1962. First flight was April 27, 1962. Built as Gulfstream I, cvt'd to Gulfstream IC, adding 3.25 meters to fuselage looking alot like a BAe ATP. Other serials - N788G with Grumman, N410AA with National Financing Co, N1M with Mr. Arthur Godfrey, N357H with Mr. H.J. Heiz, N857H with Excellair, Chaparral Als, and American Eagle, C-GPTN with Pal Air / Ptarmigan Awys, and also N195PA with Phoenix Air Grp. Stored at YIP, and also VPC (Cartersville, GA).

N195PA (G159C)
FSX

G159C (IC)

"A 37-passenger stretched version, the G-159C, was developed by Gulfstream for regional airline use. Five were delivered from November 1980. Air North (Plattsburgh NY) (which subsequently changed its name to Brockway Air) was one of the few airlines in the U.S. to use this version before its acquisition by Brockway Glass. Another Gulfstream 1-C airline operator was Chaparral Airlines which flew passenger services as American Eagle via a codesharing agreement with American Airlines."

some more G159 update.

jumped in for the panels/gauges/fde

just amazing! and very realistic

ladies and gents, we have a stair now...

how about some pilots huh?

we still working on it

oh... you'll be here so much time
