From time to time I go back on my model of the Colosseum valley. Here is a new version of Venus and Rome, and the half dome of Maxentius basilica. The half dome was done thanks to the FFD tool. [image: ldYk_mass_2p.jpg] [image: AenF_mass_3p.jpg] [image: wb6Y_vampr2p.jpg]

Very nice. Are you going to add some aircraft to the flight deck? looking at pictures of the actual ship, the bottom of the hull is dark gray, not orange (or red, like the designer's original renderings)

I know what you mean but I am not familiar with the sort of games you are talking about, too old probably. The interior is only 14' 8" BY 14' 8" and there is a 3' wide set of stairs too but that could be made narrower possibly. Could any setup allow for the games you mention? Without turning the television into a very expensive insurance policy. This place is only meant for a single person btw. Thanks for your points/comments, I will keep them in mind for the next one.

@bryan k said: Well it looks great. Why not go ahead and finish the exterior? Haven't modeled anything for a while... I hope to be able to continue soon. I'm planning to rework the rear wheel arches so they match the front. Also I remember the last thing I did was I punched a hole on the sideskirt for a muffler. For the rest I'm looking for contributors

Very nice!

Thanks mate, looking to make a nice period prop.

No idea why. Nothing makes sense in that there problem.

@garydorn said: For reference , there a number of photos of wooden bucks there were supposedly originally used to hammer out aluminium skins for these bodies. Lots of cool historical car stuff on this thread, but as a woodworker I find these wooden bucks even more compelling as pieces of art than the (gorgeous) auto body that was hammered out on top of them!

@thomthom said: [attachment=3:2l5lnglv]<!-- ia3 -->FrontDoor.png<!-- ia3 -->[/attachment:2l5lnglv] I'll bring home some tracing paper today and sketch out where I think the control loops will go. I've had a go at the mesh for the door indents, following something I saw last night. see Tileable Triangle Inset - http://imgur.com/a/dEWXP [image: irHcF.png] The indent on the door panel appears to be raised above the door panel itself slightly. Here is my try - following the above method. This is with SU16 Make. [image: 4kHb_doorindent-mesh.png] [image: apMO_doorindent1-subD.png] SU file ; SubD test

Hello, thank you all for your comments. I already made a posting late friday evening, but the post doesn' show until yet (estimated 36 hours) so I make a sekond attempt. I changed the title to show some more items. First i show a isolator, used on railway phone lines. Second are some oilcans used on steamengines. The third is litle scene including all shown items. Only the persons are not my work. You find them as free download in the "SketchUp Components, Materials & Styles" Forum.
