My first model

[jv_map]

Yay I decided to give a modelling a try It had to learn everything though hence it took me almost an entire week to do the geometry of my first model, but here it is: a B-25 Mitchell medium bomber.

Still needs a gun turret, gear and bomb hatch but it's starting to look like it I think




Now bear with me as I try to skin this one

[At0miC]

nice one JV, looking good

[Rookie One.pl]

Pretty good!

I've got a book on US WWII airplanes, there are some pictures of B-25s, can scan and post them if they'd help you skin it.

Well I got a lot of pictures myself too though if you have any from above that would be great

at first, before i9 saw the jet engines, i thought it looked like a liberator (or is it and you havent got props?)

[jv_map]

They're piston engines without props

A liberator is a B-24 and has 4 engines.

[Master-Of-Fungus-Foo-D]

ok.. the only difference between the two, i think, are the enignes.. both look the same otherwise

[Cobra {sfx}]

When can i shoot it down?

[Master-Of-Fungus-Foo-D]

When jv;'s done with his flying planes ( supermod )... Oh yea, itll be cool to have atuo guns on the back...

[Elgan]

remember mohaa = 1000 verts per skin. oh and skinning is fuuun.

You just could not be content with beeing an exelent scriter, could you? Noooo... you had to start UV-slaving and pixel pushing as well

[small_sumo]

Hey nice modeling bro, shame these people here havent been able to enjoy your fienest work "the conquest of the cannons".

Its JV's little secret.

[lizardkid]
