Hi Kieth.
Just had a look at your site and I am very impressed, great work.

I would be happy to donate a Spit for your work. Would you need the 3dm file (when finished will be about 4 mb) or just an image file?.

Best Wishes.

Thanks for the complementary review:) I have cararra and mostly find that obj. files import best, but as I'm a bit of a newbie something else may be better. You could of course send a MoI file and I could do some shading. The trouble with an image file is it restricts the composition to a single point of view. I have downloaded some from google and am contemplating a matte picture (or whatever its called).
Thanks again the spitfire

You are all too clever for an old bloke like me!
I guess, like the oil cooler "thingys", I need to play with the props a bit more still--as you can see by the attached.
Keeps me off the streets I guess!

I solved the way to do the front edge of the oil cooler thinghy!

More work on the prop.
Technically probably way out, but I think I covered many of the design principles, at least, in this learning exercise.

Nice thread guys. Like to see exchanges of work like this. It helps me to learn things.

The Spitfire is very, very nice Malc.

Me too and for the same reason! I got into the habit using truespace because it crashed a *lot*, particularly when doing difficult booleans. Now I do the same for when I "crash" :)

I haven't had a single crash in MoI. Michael certainly knows how to write stable code!

I think this is as good as I am likely to do the props from a basis of not knowing what I am really doing!!

Looks good to me Brian!

Can't fault it Brian.

Not bad for someone who don't seem to have a clue. lol

Great job.

Malc.
