F4U in Progress

Work in progress.....  Need time to pick the exact plane to model.  But I think I got the detail of the color and panel lines up to par..

Darknet, Your images is not showing because I think you upload BMP instead JPG or GIF.  Sorry

Just rightclick the empty space and click show picture, takes a while to get all 3 bmps.

two toned
« Reply #7 on: April 13, 2004, 11:43:32 AM »
Is it possible in the F4U model to create a two toned plane without the top of the nose having to be the same as the bottom of the nose.  ???

Please help.
Any suggestions good.

Now, I can see the images and thanks DarkNet.  Excellent Panel lines and you could create VF-85 F4U-1C with lighting bolt on the rudder.

It would be cool to see operating cowl flaps.  After watching the films at Zenos the only indicator they had was visual.  I guess since these are not modeled in the engine management controls we won't see them.

looks great darknet! of course i understand its unfinished, but just a suggestion to make the panel lines less "visible" and make them blend in with the aircraft more.

also, weather it more but i expect you will do that later.
