Incredible Cross Sections: Airliner
-
lol ive got xp on bootcamp dont worry im just lazy I hate swapping as my itunes is only on my mac partition to save space (XP Partition only 30GB), I only use it for 3dsmax and games but now that SU just cant handle the model when exporting it kerk I guess ive got no choice lol. Ive downloaded the demo ill install it laster and hopefully have a render soon!!
-
Well I had to remove all of the chairs and although it doesnt look it I went back and remade each section cutting out as many polys as I could wihtout spending too much time on the model.
Started work on the back engine intake.
-
Amazing work. It's almost unbeleivable that this is a sketchup model. Your really pushing SU to the extreme.
-
thanks, well lets hope not hey ive got too much still to go before my computer is allowed to implode.
-
Lol, by now, it's entitled to do so! -
No ill be fine for a while, the file now is at 40MB be able to get up to 100MB before I start experiencing problems.
-
Reworking the aircraft, added some new engines, going to scrap the wings and nose and go concord on this bad boy. Some sort of hybrid engines are added now, ignore the material I was just playing around!
-
well the kerk file has no risen to 480MB (46MB in SU) my little macbook pro is having problems editing it in SU so im taking it to a maters house and installing it on his overclocked mega PC hopefully ill be able to get some faster renders from that wish me luck!!!!
-
started fleshing out the wings and new hinge nose.
-
Looking good. Making it supersonic was a good idea.
-
yeah the other idea was too bulky, hopefully when its painted up in a nice british airways scheme it will be a nice tribute to Concorde.
-
bit more start with the interior soon!
-
Really awesome Liam very well done, minor crit Concord Tribute "designed by Boeing?????..I don't think so ....
But very impressive well done
-
Yeah when I say tribute I just meant looks-wise, didnt mean another anglo-french build.
Well as you can see from the start everything is subject to change anyway! -
Started to fill in the interior, the economy seats now with more room, overhead lockers, three staircases, three galleys and 6 upper deck toilets.
-
Was getting a bit messy so decided to go and model each section yet again and break them up into components. Ive now constructed quite a few so now I can put the model together like lego. Ive split it up into two types, the fuselage components and interior components. I can basically switch and swap and interchange into any variation, is a lot faster now.
Here are all the components so far:
-
WOW amazing work... I love it
-
Hate to bump this, but did you ever finish this one?
-
It is amazing, isn't it?
-
haha well I never finished it as I intended but I got pretty far. I actually got stuck and didnt know what I wanted to do with it model wise. I think im just waiting on a better renderer this was my most advanced result: http://liam887.files.wordpress.com/2010/07/tail-section92.jpg
However before i stopped working on it, I went back to remodel everything again into smaller components and made a building set so now if I ever want to rebuild it again it would be super quick.
