Aircraft W.I.Ps

Thanks for the comments guys!
Numbthumb, I keep them low-poly as I plan to sell them someday and currently all the planes I know in the market except in formfonts are high poly. Also, high poly destroys my laptop
Anyways, just to let you know, all the planes I've made so far are all under 5000 polys; actually my highest poly plane is about 3600 polys.ultimatez

So your plan is to get rich?
No, seriously, if it´s about your laptop ( among other things ), then I really hope you are going to upgrade soon.
What do you mean there are no low poly models on the market except in FormFonts ? What about TurboSquid or Exchange3D for instance ?
Personally, I am still struggling with level of details, and I tend to "overload" my models.
As Antoine de Saint-Exupery said: A designer knows he has achieved perfection not when there is nothing left to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.I hope someday I´ll know that.

Hi numbthumb,
no, I'm not planning to get rich, scratch that post. Actually I think that I have no absolute reason why I model them low poly. Also, I'm probably wrong about that whole low poly thing too; I don't check out those websites too often. I'll probably make a new plane with more polys soon, but then again I can't stand the sight of that black gooeyness, so I'll make one with no more than 20.000 polys. Ok then, that's my limit.

That "getting rich" part was only a joke.
And please note that I am not bothered by the number of polys either.
I was just curious.
What paint scheme are you going to use on your Tepmest? -
Hi numbthumb,
Probably the paint scheme would be something like this:

Tiny update, added the nose-cone, propellers and I also flipped the plane to make the full body.

Looking good.
Are those markings of No.6 RAF Squadron? -
Hi guys,
I'm not really good at texturing this tempest so if anyone here would like to texture/render it, here's the file.

Tempest is looking good but you seem to have forgotten to do the tailplane?..well done
-
Oops! I haven't posted that update yet, here ya go:
(Anyways if you download the file I posted earlier there's the tail wings there)ultimatez

hey,
I finally stared one: http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=81&t=27219
but still have no idea, how to texture the whole thing (rivets,...)
You know how to do that?Greetz, Fritz

Alright, a new aircraft wip, the Heinkel He 100
-
Hi Unkr3at1v,
Do you mean the texturing, or placing the rivets themselves?
If it's texturing you simply use the projection method, or if you mean placing the rivets then probably use the drop ruby; place the rivets above the aircraft itself, and then rotate the aircraft 90 degrees. Nice wip so far.ultimatez

Hi Guys,
Finished modeling the Heinkel He 100, off to coloring next.

Hi guys,
Here's the colored version of the he 100. Enjoy!

Hi guys,
Here's a render of the Heinkel He 100, Thea render unbiased RT1, 72 passes.

Ultimatez is not very fond of plugins, Mike
-
Hi Mike,
No, I haven't tried the extrusion set yet but I'll probably soon. Numbthumb, yeah, your right, I don't use many plugins, even though I have a very large plugin menu. I do though, use weld and fredoscale in nearly all of my aircraft, including the heinkel. What do you guys think of the render?

It looks very nice. I would really like to see some markings on your planes.
-
Hi numbthumb,
Yeah. I would really like to see markings too but I don't have the textures of the aircraft. If you have a link to a site with aircraft textures it would be really helpful. Anyways, here's another one, a helicopter this time.
