| My B-17, and thanks for the help Hello everyone, A while ago I had requested blueprints of the B-17 in this thread: http://www.ww2aircraft.net/forum/tec...17-a-2987.html (!!!Technical Drawing for B-17!!!) It's been a while, and I honestly have to say I completely forgot to show my final result here  .Thanks to everyone who helped me find the resources I needed. Here is my finished product:  |

 .This is a 3D piece I did in Cinema 4D. The planes (B-17s and Mustangs) are 3D models, though the Mustang was borrowed from a friend. It actually does not look that great up close, but it works from that far away. I build the B-17 from scratch in 3D, including the engines, instrument panel, bomb sight and some other object. The clouds in the BG are from a few images that I found and stitched together in Photoshop. This piece got published in the HDRI 3D magazine. I know this is not really a forum for 3D work, but this is my contribution to the love of War Birds. | |

| Thank you very much, guys. I appreciate the compliments. My next project will be an L-3. A guy I know has restored one and he asked me if I could make an image for him so he can hang it up on air shows and in his office. If you guys want, I can post it here as well, and maybe with some progress pictures. |

| Yes nice image.... I prefer to fly them in a sim once I've model them so can't use as many polys.... but I've found it's as much fun modeling the flght characteristics as it is modeling and textureing... How many polys are we talking about here ? Simon |

I have to say I don't like modeling planes for games that much. That's what I'm doing for a freelance job right now. It's way too restricting. I have no clue what the poli count is, but it's pretty high. | |
