Hi all, thought I'd put my latest model on this thread as it's along the same lines.
This is a Dingo Scout Car from WW2. I have a couple textured and a few skinned.
-
These would look cool in a game engine
what method did you use for UV mapping them? -
that is class!!
-
This is good, I like those texture, how did You make it?

Hi all, thanks for your comments.
The procedure for making these models is quite simple really.
I start by making the model as you can see in the first two Dingo pic and texture them accordingly.- Take snapshots of the top and sides and anything else that I need to texture.
- Use a paint program (I use PSP) and use darken to creat shaddow and darker areas.
- Put the new textures together into a single image file and import the image in to scale.
- Apply the new textures onto the model.
- Render the model for real shading.
Hope this helps

that pretty cool, its too bad UV can't be mapped to use texture space a little more efficiently. Other than that good work
Could use a little bit of dirtying up since its a military vehicle IMO -
thats a great process....thanks for sharing that.

...Quite a while ago, I once tried modeling a ferret scout car, but it really wasn't detailed or accurate at all. As usual, I was mostly just playin' around. http://sketchup.google.com:80/3dwarehouse/download?mid=1e2cfd36c3093f7544eb8c14f291fa5b&rtyp=s6&fn=ferret2&ctyp=sm&ts=1221944567000
I might try my luck again sometime, but I'd need some decent blueprints.
-
nice ....love the military feel.....nice tuts on the process....too bad im still a noob on applying materials and rendering
-
Thanks again all for your C&C's.
@oalexis
It was my first attempt at UV mapping, so hopefully it gets better next time.@•BTM
Thanks for sharing, it would be easy to map the ferret@MikeR
Here is a basic tut on how to texture from the 3DWarehouse

Is this Osprey?

Thanks for noticing, yes it it the Bell/Boeing V-22 Osprey.
It's not totally accurate because I've only modelled it off pictures because I couldn't find any better resource. -

the plane is just as cool as the first model,like the way you go for alternative looking vechicles.hard to guess what the next one will be.Great modeling

Maybe this can help!
Thanks for the resource, I managed to find some decent enough plans after searching on Goolge for... how many days???
Ive restarted the model and now have one side of the fuselage is almost complete. Oops, no! Guess I haven't... I thought I'd saved it before I made the changes and closed it... oh well!

Thanks, I just model what catches my eye when surfing. The first two models were quite simple because I wasn't going for accuracy and they both are very square. I thought I'd challange myself a bit.
