1/48 Trumpeter ERA-3B Skywarrior - VAQ-33
Major Walt replied to Wolfman_63's topic in In-Progress Pics
Outstanding work on the flight deck! This has special significance for me. My dad worked on avionics components for the B-66, the A3’s evil blue twin (USAF) when he was stationed at RAF Sculthorpe (my birth place). I wish Trumpeter would produce the B-66 as well... -
Beautiful!! No other words are needed...

I love this! I’m a big fan of scratchbuilding!!

That’s one of the best paint jobs I’ve ever seen! Beautifully done. I’ve never been of a fan of wheels up models, but I might have to make an exception here. i especially love the way you did the red on the nacelles. Ive got two unbuilt. This gives me inspiration!

This is about as good as it gets! I especially love the crisp yet subtle panel lines. Beautiful work!!

The 144th FW based at Fresno CA. I know it well. I’m in the Cal Guard based at Beale AFB. Looking forward to more on this gem.

Off to a good start! Great job on that seat! Especially the seatbelts. Those are tricky

Very nice would do far! Did you include an interior?

P-40B (based on the original Curtiss blueprints)

How did you achieve those panel lines in Blender? I’ve tried numerous approaches that yielded less than optimal results. -

Major Walt replied to Witold Jaworski's topic in In-Progress Pics
Thanks! I start with a bulkhead similar to what you described. I do the canopy separate as you suggested. I run into issues with the subdivision surface when putting in edge control loops. It never ends up looking quite right. I think more practice is required. At least my current results vaguely resemble an RB-66 -

Major Walt replied to Witold Jaworski's topic in In-Progress Pics
Do you usually start with a cylinder, put in loop cuts, and rough out the basic shape, or do you start with planes, extruding them along the reference pictures? Ive been struggling with an RB-66, and can’t get past the forward part of the fuselage. I can never get it to look right.. -
1/48 Monogram EA-6B Prowler VAQ-141 Shadowhawks
Major Walt replied to BastianD's topic in In-Progress Pics
That’s starting to really take shape. The finishing job is looking superb! -
I’m in awe. It’s difficult to believe that this will be your first finished model. Your skills are professional grade!!! I especially love the work on that pilot figure!
