      OK, that makes sense, I guess I was confused from the amount of triangles in the wireframes. I thought you used the sandbox tool. I have never used the sandbox tool to create that clean of shapes, only landscape. Thanks for the reply.

            Thanks Bruce.
            Well the original author called it "Big Bird" so I think I will stick with that.

            Edit: Thanks Dan.

                  No, this was just a first try. I may even do multiple color schemes and what not.

                        Big Bird flies!

                        I did a few short animations, compiled it quickly with basic 'ol Windows movie maker, slapped on an audio track and we have the Big Bird music video.

                        If I had more time I'd have done better clean up and editing.

                        Sit back, crank up the sound (earphones would be best) and see Erics baby go.

                        Modeled in SU by Boofredlay, textured and animated with Vue 7 infinite.

                                  Fantastic, Pete...!! 👍
                                  Great to see some of the capabilities of Vue... 😄
                                  In particular I liked the shot from inside the cockpit and out, where the plane is turning...
                                  That actually looked real...!

                                  Cheers

                                    Solo this looks fantastic... very impressive. I need to look at Vue again.
                                    Question..was it time consuming to set up animation?

                                      It must have taken time, cause most of the transitions in views are edited matches the beat in the music... 👍
