      hi there.
      thanks, to be honest, i modelled these things in a dual core 3.4 ghz machine with 2 gig ram. No fancy equipment. Just lots of patience. Be sure to look into the other candy models if you havent seen them yet. I now got a powerful i7 machine, and hope to do some great things with this in the future. πŸ˜„

            Sup silver_shadow, great detail work on BH, I really enjoy looking at the inside of BH, seat and belts are just wicked and all other detail work is just phenomenal πŸ˜„
            Your system is very similar to mine, do you mind sharing your V-ray set up for "clay" renders?

                        Jacques, now that you have a real machine, what can we expect for 'Eye candy 4'?

                        I really look forward to these, they are most humbling.

                                    firstly i build ribs, as one normally do in plane construction, rounded the edges. Then i used a plugin called skin. Choose 2 faces and joined them. Once completed you get a basic frame wich one can work with, and then you just tweak it as you go on.

                                      Thanks, that's not how i make planes so it took me ages, and then i had forgotten to round all the rib's corner's, and i made a LOT to many ribs. Thanks, and now that I know the amount of time it takes just to make those silly ribs, I admire your work more!

                                        Beautiful work.

                                        BTW, there's a "[" missing in your image link at the end where it should be [/img], the cockpit clay render isn't showing up. This one:

                                          Thanks, i fixed the link .Yea my whole image storage folder crashed and had to move them to another account and re post all my images, to in places i ended up posting less, esp the candy 3 model because there are 250 renders of that and things like this might happen. Thanks for pointing this, really apreciate it. πŸ˜„
