Well it's about time I step up and post something (which would force me to finish it or eat a shoe or something) I have a tire to finish now that I can handle the model size, but wanted to try something closer to my hidden heart.

My Mag Lev vehicle. Next I need to work out the drive train and operators compartment.

Is that shape at the back to slow it down?

Its the PDC!

Pulse Drive Controller.

And when you see the road that it drives on the design will be apparent.

Hey Burr, looking good so far, will be interested in seeing this one finished.
Looks 'The Jetsons-ish'
If you don't finish it, make sure it's a leather shoe, they're tastier :)

Cheers
~Danny~

Looking good BurrMan - are you planning to texture and render too?


>>If you don't finish it, make sure it's a leather shoe, they're tastier

He's got to finish it now he's posted :-)

Funny, my friend and I back in 8th grade worked on a project using balsa wood and electromagnets to create a "Servo-Anti-Magna-Traction" vehicle. (Amazing how that name has stuck in my mind all this time! :-P )

Trying to remember what happened to it?? ; I think another classmate/friend who we used to call "The Fool" was messing around with it mid project, and either dropped it or fell on it or something similar - lawd!

Anyway, great start - looking forward to this one also!

Thanks Danny, I have eaten a few in my strident day.

I do plan on rendering it. This will probably take me the longest as its my weakest suit. I dont want to just color it, I need to get a result like Danny or Grendels. No computer to blame anymore you see.

Will, The Fool? Poor kid. I wonder what happened to him. Maybe MoI could rebuild that memory for you and you could have that dream back again. (It's changed now) I'v revisited some past projects and they werent what I remembered. Alway's better in my mind. A re-creation may prove fullfilling.

Oh well, nothing to be proud of yet. But it seems as though I stepped in it!

Burr
