try and model the Varyag so the USMC can be the ones defending an island for once.

Thanks Sicario, finally figured out what the planar button does now

Before I was lining everything up manually and lost a lot of hair in the process.

Good job so far on the VN3, great to see the PLA getting some love!

Update: Turret finished, the 14.5mm turret version of VN3 Model is finished.

Next step, UVmapping... Don't know what it is or what it means but that's what I'm going to do

While I'm at it, I'm thinking about making the HJ-8 turret for the VN3 as well if I could find any good reference pictures.

I would say it needs more detail, looks like you can still shove a load more polies onto it.

Also the last pic, on the right back side it seems you have same faces that are stressed, for lack of a better word i forget the real word for it.

remove them and redo them normally is the best way to fix them.

The rear of the left front wheel arch looks a little dodgy compared to the pic. Looks like you have a vertex too far left.

Please dont go too high with the detail, it will end up like the Merlin/huey.

Great work! What's the tri/poly count?

Ironcomatose · 04-27-2008, 02:14 PM

The wheels seem a little big too. Might want to make them a little smaller, but just a bit. I agree with Rhino, when compared to say the up-armored HMMWV this thing is bare(as it should be) so it seems to me you can add any little detail you want and not go over the limit.

Thanks for the feedback guys

I'll get on it right away.

Does anyone know what would be a good Poly/Tri count?
