dawestsides Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 (edited) Actually I came to scale modeling because of 3d modeling...though I haven't started yet my first "real" model :lol: I think rendering an aircraft in 3D is as difficult as building a scale model,but both bring a lot of fun.I'm using 3ds Max 2010,texturing (in progress) with Illustrator/Photoshop,and final render in Mental Ray. I'm still waiting for my ICM MiG-25PD,will work on both...but not at the same time! Hope you like it: Edited March 31, 2010 by dawestsides Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sebastijan Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 Great work so far! So actually you will find time between 3D modelling, plastic modelling, life and FC2? :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dawestsides Posted April 5, 2010 Author Share Posted April 5, 2010 Thank you :D I haven't found any drawings/blueprints on the R15-300,so I based my modeling on pictures only.I hope the dimensions are close to the real thing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
olemanjoe Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 Oh WOWWW!!!!! Thats another reason to get a PC! I have always been using Macs (for work n home) but i think i'll get a PC just to emulate what you are doing! Is the software hard to use? Do u need a good graphics card? What sort of set up for the PC do you have? How do you incorporate photoshop into it? is PSD just for textures? Its fantastic work! :) Ol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
davetur Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 (edited) Some details on the R15-300 exhaust nozzles: Now, to really be a hero on this forum you could do two things: 1. sell the 3d model to some manufacturer of aftermarket resin parts who can produce a master out of it: I'm sure Aires is one, or 2. find the way to transform the 3d model into suitable file (.stl) that can be managed by a high resolution stereolitography machine, also called 3d printer, make your own master out of it and start to produce resin parts for the MiG geeks around the world. I know there are companies that will do the print for a reasonable fee. What do you think? Cheers Davide Edited June 16, 2010 by davetur Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dawestsides Posted June 24, 2010 Author Share Posted June 24, 2010 me...a hero :blink: Selling the model to a manufacturer is a great idea,I've seen a lot of complaints on the MiG-25 afterburner cans available on the market,seems that nobody got them right so far. I'm not familiar with stereolitography,how much would it cost? Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
soulfreak Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 Looks great! How much is the poly count of that model? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
