Hi All,
Seems this bird brings out a lot of memories for a lot of people. A pretty good reason to model such a well received bird with as many plumages as one can ever dream of.
Work on the engine nacelle skins has, as usual, taken more time than anticipated. One thing about Rhino is that more you use it the better you become. New learning experiences always seem to be just around the corner. Needless to say I've learned several new and valuable things about this software over the last several evenings.
The photo below shows the Port Engine Nacelle surfaces. I spent several hours in getting the render to look just so for the teaser shot. Upside of spending the time is that it can be used on all the other assemblies at show and tell render time...,
Oh yeah, it's the Pratt & Whitney version. Pilots who flew the Wright Cyclone version were renowned to have kidney problems for some reason...,
