damn man! That's looking really good! Do you have a tutorial kit that you're following along with? Or are you doing it solo? Either way, it looks great!

Are you going to rig the wheels so that they go up into the body?

 

[J.R. Hudson]

Hi Nick

XSI

A minor update; going around my arse to get to the elbows but am learning like a sponge with each minute!

 

[J.R. Hudson]

I cannot find a detail of the corsair engine so Iam going through the motions on it; I'll add like a little firewall in the center to cover up the lack of actual engine

 

[TC]

Geez lazy... just model the damn engine!

:laugh:

 

[J.R. Hudson]

Bastid inspired me

 

[TC]

Hell yeah! That looks great!

I'm waiting on a MoBo so I can build my new computer and laod up Maya. Once I get started, it's ON.

John,
Google "pratt and whitney r-2800 radial engine" and check out the images.
I think they'll have what you are looking for.
On another aomewhat related note. I was hanging out in the apartment one day and heard the sound of an aircraft going overhead. Didn't think anything of it until I heard it again. Went to see what was up. Walked out onto the porch just in time to see a B17 G fly right over my apartment, rivet counting low. Grabbed the camera and got like 20 minutes of fly overs. Then the B25's showed up, and four Japanese fighters. And it wasn't a dream. The sound alone gives me chills.
