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

10000lbs fuel truck and buildings

CYEG surrounding buildings in various stages

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

The Berwick Clipper

Work In Progress...

Northrop F5-A/C VF-5 (2005 flashback)

2005... there wasnt around many F-5 models for FS especially the VF-5 crossover

( half dutch half canadian) so if you wanted a F-5 you had to do it one yourself ... started to learn Gmax with the SI tutorials ...and the rest, the F-5 REAL ACCURATE shapes are TOO hideous for a beginner (even 3 views has errors) but i took my time... this was released as a beta, by then in a short follow a really nice payware model was made freeware so i saw no need to further develoment, i even ported to CFS3 once... had a lot of fun, never made a real VC for it. she's been flying on IVAOs library (as many others i will post later on) gotta thank one of my favorite planes for all the learning, of what it will become my job, i even got into a F-5 cockpit once, so it has paid off a lot ever since.

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!

around for a whirl before mapping and paint
