EricJ Posted April 21, 2007 Author Posted April 21, 2007 Ohh, yep, sorry i can see it :P I guess hes using 3dsm to make the model? AFAIK yes. But there are some pics that I need to get, been moving around a little bit so I've been offline for a day so when I get them I'll post them on the progress.

EricJ Posted April 21, 2007 Author Posted April 21, 2007 New nose render. Yes it's jumbled but my modeller also added some picture to it to give it depth, and the image is from a model, to show the accuracy. And currently it's jumbled because the intent was to show the the nosework: Currently at this time, it's at 15,000 polys. I expect it to end up around 60,000, but that's my own guesstimate...

EricJ Posted April 24, 2007 Author Posted April 24, 2007 Minor update, the canopy is being worked on (yeah not real much but better than nothing.. I guess).

sp0nge Posted April 24, 2007 Posted April 24, 2007 looks great Is breaking the laws of gravity illegal? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
JetwasH Posted April 25, 2007 Posted April 25, 2007 After seeing how many problems the model had it is definitely going to take a while.. Sunny and i have been discussing what needs done and by the looks of it "most" of the model will need to be redone.. Obviously that means time.. Ive seen Sundevil make a fighter from scratch that was nothing less than amazing..Well worth the wait :thumbup: AEF JetwasH | 161 SQN [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
sp0nge Posted April 25, 2007 Posted April 25, 2007 so long as it gets a release im happy! :P Is breaking the laws of gravity illegal? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
JetwasH Posted April 25, 2007 Posted April 25, 2007 Wouldnt mind seein a RAAF paintscheme for it soon too ;) AEF JetwasH | 161 SQN [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
EricJ Posted April 25, 2007 Author Posted April 25, 2007 Like that's any difficulty :) I found some really close in shots for SunDevil on http://www.alert5.com so he should have some more questions solved as far as intricate details and whatnot. Believe me, they're nice and huge so there's no excuse! :D Homepage | Discord | My Files | YouTube 'Nearly everyone felt the need to express their views on all wars to me, starting with mine.

EricJ Posted April 30, 2007 Author Posted April 30, 2007 More updates, it's looking more and more like a plane, (no screenies yet) but all he has to do is map the critical inside parts, put it back together, weld it shut, and then go from there. But it's moving along, just that we have real life to contend with.

PythonOne Posted April 30, 2007 Posted April 30, 2007 sweet, are you going to submit this to ED so they would actually create a slot for the super bug or is this meant to replace our current F-18 model?
EricJ Posted April 30, 2007 Author Posted April 30, 2007 No it's going to replace the Su-33. I know what Alfa recommends, and well, I spent 82 bucks for the Super Bug model, so no, it's not for the AI to fly around in. The AI has a good enough model, it'll be okay ;) Homepage | Discord | My Files | YouTube 'Nearly everyone felt the need to express their views on all wars to me, starting with mine.

-akyla- Posted April 30, 2007 Posted April 30, 2007 Will it be be better than the existing f-18 model.. just asking :) it looks wonderful !!!! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
EricJ Posted April 30, 2007 Author Posted April 30, 2007 From what I've seen yes. Right now it's just in the reworking phase so it'll look as good as it gets really. When we get to more complete looks, then we'll judge but still the regular Bug looks better right now :) Homepage | Discord | My Files | YouTube 'Nearly everyone felt the need to express their views on all wars to me, starting with mine.

EricJ Posted May 26, 2007 Author Posted May 26, 2007 Thanks, but looks like Sundevil is on vacation till the 15th, and trying to get some kinda idea on progress. Unfortunately my move has sorta put a wrench in the updates.. Homepage | Discord | My Files | YouTube 'Nearly everyone felt the need to express their views on all wars to me, starting with mine.
