Ta mate, no idea what time I did that, sometime this AM. Twilight working particularly well on this.

ntxdave · 2 Jul 2023, 13:32

Looking good to me.

Mike Amos · 2 Jul 2023, 15:24

Ta mate, down to refinements now. Panemls, rescue and call signs etc. Still looking to improve the nav lights.

Nice! looking forward to the panels, will you be adding decals?

Looking foward to that also

Mike Amos · 3 Jul 2023, 16:41

Ta folks, definitely. Researching decals, most panels in place but they are geometry rather than graphics.

Mike Amos · 4 Jul 2023, 00:06

First decals, also geometry rather than graphics.

Oh yeah!

Ta mate, the other (Port) side has had me pulling hair, really quite a bit.......

I run into this a lot.

My trick is to make the opposite side component Unique and then apply the lettering right way reading.

Mike Amos · 4 Jul 2023, 10:37

Agreed but, the geometry does not always 'like' this which drive me a little potty time.

Well, Mr Bentine thought so.

Mike Amos · 4 Jul 2023, 16:44

Port side decals.

Bryan K · 4 Jul 2023, 18:09

Wow! Looking really good!

Mike Amos · 4 Jul 2023, 23:36

Tickling the edges now, not too much change at one given time because it is finer changes being made. Moving to Gallery now as I think I am getting there now.

Mike Amos · 14 Jul 2023, 16:48

Looking at alternate HDRI and static rotor options.

axeonalias · 14 Jul 2023, 18:36

Shot looks great, but the scale is off with the HDRI there, Looks tiny now, like a 1:5 scale RC Heli?

Mike Amos · 14 Jul 2023, 20:50

I know, waiting for someone to spot that. Laughed my head of when I did.

Bryan K · 21 Jul 2023, 01:46

Render looks great!

Yeah HDRI scaling can be a bugger. Still looks good.

Fleuch has suggested some tree's, OK, more a grass field but shows how it pays to be careful when choosing colours/textures in different light setting. The codes have almost completely vanished. The straight lines in the ground plane are the shadow catcher which I must address.

ntxdave · 22 Jul 2023, 14:02

I like the background image and the ground and the way you got them to blend together. I have not been able to get things to blend that good. Where did you get the background image? What texture/material did you use for the ground? My problem might also be my camera angle.

I like the render. Fletch always seems to come up with good suggestions.
