I can only endorse all of the positive comments and add my own admiration fot you work By the way I believe that "if you got it FLAUNT it!" don,t be shy you are good keep it up looking forward to eye candy 3 with great anticipation

i love detail!!! sos un monstruo! buenisimo! awsome! fabulosos! mortal! indescriptible! barbaro!
-
Big deal! I could do that... if i had a million years, a bunch of talent, a crazy skills... oh wait, this IS a big deal
Simply incredible how you have push/pulled the bar!
-
Nice stuff! Thanks for posting the images showing each step in building the fuselage. Very informative. I probably would have extruded the fuselage lengthwise rather than from the profile. Can you share your thinking on that?
-
These are just mind blowing.
The modelling is exceptional and that level of detail takes a special talent.Those last three renders and PS compositions are just sublime!
Great work Jacques

Jacques,
Absolutely superb work.
The guys in my office are Revit converts and look down their noses at Sketchup as a bit of a play thing. When I called them all over to my computer to take a look at your great work, there was stunned silence and and a collective shuffle back to their seat with their collective tails between their legsI love the renders as well, fantastic.

i have extruded the fuselage from the side and bottom, and there they intersected i sort of got the idea of shape. (btw, its my first attempt to build something else than buildings lol )
I have updated the first page includin the raw maxwell renders as requested.
thanx for the support guys

Stunning Silvershadow! The images highlight not only your skill but your love of crafting such a detailed model. You are justifiable in your pride of accomplishment. A big thanks for posting all the progress series. They really do inspire by showing that when you craft such a complex model you break it down into many, more manageable, smaller projects.
For EyeCandy3: I'd suggest this landmark.

Dear Jacque,
I am curious as to where you found the detail for the rotor assembly. Did you find that on the web or did you use another source?
Regards,

wow man, it's really awsome what you did up there! congrats!
i saw you posted an image with the icons of the tools you used, but are these plugins or just tools 'cause i've been lookin' for them and i just can't find them, exept for the skin bubble...
in one of the steps you drew the different sections of the blackhawk, a succession of planes; how did you manage to convert them in the skin of the chopper? -
silver_shadow
Would you mind listing the scripts, plug ins and extra goodies you have installed with SU?
It is hard for a basic user to understand how such complex models can be made, any tips much appreciate.
Cheers -
I tihnk he gave a list of them in the first post.
Just to give them their names:
tools on surface
soap skin bubble
skin
projections
3d shapes
sandbox tools (native SU, enabled through window->preferences->extensions)
subdivide and smooth -
wow
-
much props. can't believe those images and your model. inspiring
-
these were my sources for building my rotors. (form the internet)
top
and the back
i used the tool skin for connecting the faces. the tool connects 2 faces and fill in the missing geometry between it.Bit of a time saver
-
Well played silver_shadow
Out of interest, how many polygons is the model?
-
He he
...Silver,
It seems someone posted about your BlackHawk modeling/rendering in the 'off topic' section of the Maxwell forum.
Things like 'this can't be Sketchup' etc... pop up. You might want to check it. -
lol i have no idea
listen guys... i want to ask something off topic here...
What programs are best to use and easy too, that can do a lot, to me i still think SU are the best to pump out models quickly.i was talking to a guy and said its like working with an dinosaur and there is much easier programs to have build this. (using nurbs) Isnt it taking longer to pull points around? just a thought, i havent build many things with nurbs before...so its just curiosity thats getting to me.
Wow i would tear my head of if SU 7 introduces particles, man !!
-
yea we were talking about that so he suggested other apps to build more complex models...
to me...building a box is easier like doing 3 clicks and you have it...than building this in nurbs..
so it got me tickled... -
Absolutely amazing!! Incredible job!!!!!!
