phant Posted January 7, 2022 Author Posted January 7, 2022 2022 New Year’s Update Chance-Vought F-8J Crusader While our efforts have shifted towards the completion of our Corsair, the Crusader has been patiently waiting on laser scans. Thanks to the San Diego Air & Space Museum, we were able to hire a laser scan service to go out and scan BuNo 150297. We had the cockpit and landing gear scanned in high resolution and also a low resolution set scanned to act as templates when modeling the parts. https://leatherneck-sim.com/wp-content/uploads/Updates/2022/New_Years/F-8J_Scan_Cockpit_001.jpg https://leatherneck-sim.com/wp-content/uploads/Updates/2022/New_Years/F-8J_Scan_Cockpit_003.jpg Bye Phant 1

The pilot! Our detailed pilot includes the following items that would have been found on any U.S. Navy and Marine aviator during the late 1960s era: APH-6D Helmet A-13A Oxygen Mask MA-2 Torso Harness SV-2 Survival Vest MK-3C Life Preserver U.S. Navy Flight Boots Type B3 Summer Flight Gloves Type Mk-2A Anti-G Cutaway Coveralls Tiger Stripe Flight Suit With the pilot model now finished, we will begin on texturing and animations.
