Hobbnob's WIP Thread

Hah, that's very nice, though on the second render the windshield glass seems "Grainy". Other than that, very nice. How, for heavens sake, did you make the tarp in the first??

Did some work on nola's Vue, heres the original:
On a couple of quick renders of the half finished one:
WOW! It looks awesome!

golden, I made contours using intersect, then 'rebuilt' the car using the curviloft beta by fredo6 (immense plugin). After fixing a couple of problems (it's a beta) the generated mesh looked perfect for fabric, so i scaled it up a bit then sliced a hole so that the viewer could see a bit, connoting that it's in one of those shows where they reveal the car for the first time(kind of what I was actually doing
) -
Ah, thats really brilliant!
-
Bit more work on the Panther CLV, only one pic though, and a little attachment
Controls
WASD=Move
Arrows=Aim
E=Zoom
Q=Fire
-
Awesome work with the zoom functions.
I wish I knew what the exploding gray spheres were...They seem to appear when I press key('f'). -
the panthers not bad but the arrow keys sometimes stick and the gun just rotates around or it doesnt move at all.
but this isnt all the time. other than that its quite good
-
cam, I have no idea what causes the sticking, it's so annoying.

Been off the pc for a few days, been sorting out kit for cadet 150 down at buckingham palace. Was a very good day, marched up the mall, met prince charles, talked about cadets and the regulars and stuff, wwas a very good day, I doubt everyone can say they've been to a royal garden party
. Anyways, I'll be putting some more wip pics soon. -

Quite right. I haven't either!

New project, the first of it's kind: a sketchyphysics airshow. I used williamT's hawk and then added the red arrows livery, then added sketchyphysics. The aircraft are capable of breaking and reentering formation, but it requires split-second timing on the script's part so it's difficult.
Couple of pics:
And a link to the beta:

Awessome job!

Been working on a black hawk helicopter, focus on the sketchyphysics. I am currently unable to upload pictures because I am not in possession of the file (long story) so I shall instead give some information on the sketchyphysics side.
The sketchyphysics
The aircraft is fully capable of flight, and is also fully damageble. A small knock on the tail rotor will disable the stability control and send the aricraft into a slow spin. The stability control automatically resets the pitch and roll of the aircraft, so losing that is a big problem. If the rotor is hit multiple times, the engines will begin to lose power and the aircraft will spin faster. A hit to the main rotors however will drasticalyl reduce the power output of the aircraft, and you will crash.
The situation in the model is that you have to fly over a hostile zone in order to reach a location. There is a single rpg gunner in the zone that the pilot cannot see until he has fired a rocket, forcing the pilot to either make evasive maneuvers or hope that the rocket does not hit any critical systems. I am trying to make this model as realistic as possible, in both the static model and the physics. Due to the new sketchyphysics coming though I am not sure whether I shall complete this model, because the new version may not be compatible with the current version, but it looks like it will. IMHO I am pleased that sp is getting a proper overhaul, but it seems that all of the new features require a knowledge of ruby script, which IMO could leave some users behind.

Hobb, if I were you I'd carry on with it. SketchyBehaviours is on the horizon, but the horizon is very far away
Love the sound of the heli though
-
Oh god, Hobbnob. PLEASE finish this project! I am so freaking excited!
-
Bit more on the blackhawk, still unable to get pics though. As many modellers know, reference images are very important when working with sketchup. However, images don't quite work when modelling sketchyphysics, so heres a reference video.
[flash=720,480:8ki6mx4f]http://www.youtube.com/v/DpSMjnjfFU8[/flash:8ki6mx4f]I'ts from the film "Black Hawk Down", and it shows the first crash of the film. The footage used as reference is from 1:10 to 2:25. This footage shows an RPG-7 being launched at the heli, where it hits the tail rotor. As a result of this the aircraft spins very rapidly and crashes.
-
By the end of the day I'll be in possession of the blackhawk, so pictures of that are coming. For now though, heres another pic of the red arrows in action:
-
ALM has a good black-hawk model on the 3D warehouse you could use that?
-
Liam, using someone elses model is all good uner normal circumstances, but the quality of the mesh is so high that it crashes mty pc whenever I open it on this computer.
First pic of the blackhawk is here
And now a wip model, all the controls are in there thanks to a handy bit of scripting
