Hi
I am at home so the net is extremely slow but let me answer some issues:
Rhino is the software I use, but because of the way that I model , I use Solid Edge for "variable" fillets.
I create the surfaces ( Nurbs) then create a solid , I project the panel lines onto the surface and use the lines to cut the solid into smaller solids then I run fillet commands or bevel commands around the edges , then I stich them together - Simple Short explenation !
I use 3D Body Paint from Maxon to put the textures on!
Hope you can use it!
I can give you the long story if you need it?

Hi Aztek
I don't have big time funds , I have to save like the rest - doing 3 jobs help!
Target date for complettion is next year March 2004 , if all goes well.
Talking about landing gear , I am looking for information material on the back landing gear . I looked at the F-14 landing gear , but it's not the same. Does anyone have sketchs or drawings they can help with?
Thanks

It's a nurbs model , I am using Maxon's 3d body paint for textures , I will make it look "old and rusty" when all the changes is implimented.
Aztek , I looked at the counter sunk rivets , this model started and it's main purpose still is, when it is finished to be "grown" with stereolithography in a real toy. The counter sunk rivets won't show well , and you won't be able to feel the rivets on the body panels on the toy , the rivtes need to protude a bit . I have however started to create the counter rivets just for the render , I think it's going to look great , I will post it when finished - I hope this make sense ?

Thanks guys !
A new twist ! countersunk rivets , I will "endevour" to perfect !

I am so glad this thread is "still" going , as always the talent here is great.
I broke down and bought a hasegawa kit , just to find that my model need some changes so I am busy with the front bit of the VF-1a . Iam trying to get a look that show the panels better like a kit when the builder used paint in the grooves of the model .
What do you think?
