Overview.

I´ve been following this with great pleasure. It looks excellent!
Do you intend to ditch Susan and give it a try with Kerky?

Thanks numb.

I don't know about rendering. I have a test version of Podium that I am finding out is going to take me a while to learn, as well Kerky, so rendering probably won't happen for at least a month.

If someone else would like to render it, I would be glad to send them the file.

That is some awesome modelling. Nice one. Would love to have a go at rendering it although my skills are somewhat lacking.

Looks great Bryan, you'll be drawing the International Space Station next.

Er, or not. Doesn't seem to want to upload. Maybe the file is too big.

Archive it or use dropbox.

Are those something associated with this board?

Not per se, no, but what I meant by archiving was to suggest that you should try to use winrar to compress the file size and then upload it here.
With dropbox you can essentially have a few folders on your computer in which you can add stuff and it will be uploaded to your dropbox account and then you can share them with other people and they can odd other files or modify them, but you can also put files in your public folder, right click on it after it uploaded and share the link, you then have control on how long you want to share that file. https://www.dropbox.com/

Or...are you trying to upload it to the 3dwarehouse?

[Bryan K]

Thanks Marian. I've got an idea now. I'll load it to my website.

Video.

[Bryan K]

Sorry I didn't make the model available after all. I decided to go ahead and give it a try.

[Bryan K]

Last one until I figure out how to light the nav lights on.

Have you started on the interior?

[Dave R]

Bryan, that looks really good. Great work. I was also wondering about the interior.
