Glad to see you guys are liking it Cheesy

here´s where it´s at:

i have done the turbine pylons, exausts and have already cut the wings for the flaps which i´m about to do...

look´s high on poly count? it´s not! Wink

only 4940 triangle at this point... that´s about a sixth of the limit of 30,000 i´ve set Shocked

i have yet to make the fan blades...

those are the GE-90s...

someone said the sounded really cool and ask me to make it with them, so i did

i´ve done the blades by now... managed to keep them low-poly enough (indeed, you can only see them barely when the engines are off Tongue

)... i managed to make them with about 40 triangles each (not a lot) sinsce there are 22 of them in each turbine............. Tongue

....and now, the flaps!

pictures later... Wink

seeya,

I see in the back the normals look kinda weird, the shadowing? It's on the tail cone, that grabs much attention.

that is a smoothing problem... i´m trying to take care of it but it´s proving very persistent... Roll Eyes

but for now i´m more concerned about doing the flaps Cheesy

, they are still in progress so no screenies just yet Wink

all in it´s time, i´ll have all those weirdnesses fixed when their turn comes around, worry not

I think I know how you may fix that problem, if you have to faces together at that tight angle, with smoothing applied that scenario may happen, I've experienced it. Here are some pics for me to help visually explain.

right bad normals, left fine

showing a closer shot

with edges, you can see the left shape has a face at the end with corrects the bad normals.

better view with normals on, showing the face and the better shape to the right.

I've personally had this problem before and this is what I did to correct the problem, Moach. Wink

weeee!! more!

here are the GE-90 fan blades!

i´ve done the flaps and spoilers

see how they open?

i´ve also modified the nose a bit to make it look more like the photos

well, you can clearly see that i haven´t done the other side yet... i´ll get to it as soon as this one seems perfect Wink

i´ll be back!
