Thx 3D-Brainx , The model should ,but it is a CAD model so when you converted it to poly's it becomes a very big file

Small bit of progress again ....

Been a while - real life very hectic , but I created solid model from nurbs an d carving out the shape to add fillets and detail later

cool

awesome skills

small update

Thanks Zinjo

Started modeling again - detailing's is a pain , I added the "foot" and did some work there . Slow going ...

^Cool

little progress ..

I need some advise

I am looking at the front "cut"out , there is not good detail on this - am i going the right way or is this wrong?

Leg getting some love with detail

Thx 3D-Brianx - CAD Rhino3d , Render - Cinema 4D or Blender (still learning)

I have been constructing the cutting lines , so each panel can then be cut from the solid model - I get asked about NURBS modeling a lot , so here is some detail of how the lines look and then how it is used.

Old school

Will post the finished "leg" that is filleted next ....

Thanx guys

Small details being added

Very well done

Small update

Wow - learned a lot from one comment - never to old to learn.I hope we see this 1/20 VF-1 soon .

Lucky all my 3D models are in CAD format so any scale is possible

Thank you for the feedback , in my part of world( South Africa) not a lot of "Aircraft" models in 1/20 all British and American scales

Why do a 1/20 scale when the standards are 1/24 , 1/32 .. just thinking .

Thx guys Thought I add some progress pics , it's going very slow .I just getting all the basic shape, sizes and position right for now

Thx Mr March - had a look and i will use info there

I finalized the general shape of the gunpod now I need to add detail ....

Had a lighting strike that took out my server and electrical equipment late December 2015 - after the restore , I found an old file where I started a VF-0 so I have restarted this week with front body and Gunpod

Not an AutoDesk product go to http://www.freecadweb.org/ to see more - I have done some 3d prints from Freecad models, not bad , I prefer Rhino3D for NURBS modeling .

I like CAD tools , model to dimensions and spec - Have a look at Rhino 3d , Solid Edge , Solid Works and FreeCAD( The Blender of CAD tools, free and open source )

looking good

Interesting
