conex

Recommended Posts

Just started another project.

I love JetRanger´s, so i´ll do this with time.

Want to got a good visual approach too, with all details i can do, full interior modelled too, and a realistic cockpit.

Still needing a lot of work but its what i did with 1 day of work.

the green sorta makes my eyes bug out- but thats my worst opinion. The helicopter looks good to me so far.

That looks great. Will the Cargo Hatch open with a slider because the pictures show it with and without it?

Yeap, i´m planning to all parts work, including turbine, doors, etc.

Why not an 206L4 or even better a 407 instead?

Because i got a bell 206 on back of my house :D

If i got success with this one maybe i can do another ones too.

How do you get that much work done in one day? It's amazing.

By the way, will it be Payware or Freeware?

Well, i just dont get out my eyes of screen! :P

Will be freeware for sure.

This looks Great , I can't wait. I don't know, but isn't there a type of jet ranger that has retractable wheels?

I believe you are talking about Bell Agusta AB139.

that looks a little bigger then what i meant. Have you seen Reign of Fire the helicopter in that looks like the Jet Ranger but it has stub wings that the main gear fold into then the front gear goes in the tip of the nose. it might not be the same company but it looks really close to it.

Your Jet Ranger looks really cool, i just thought because of how close they look it might have been a newer model of jet ranger. Maybe they share the same frame though.

Hmm, never see this one before ( i think ).

Thanks ;)

that one is a little closer but the one i was thinking of has little wings over the rear landing gear that the wheels fold into. I'll try to find some pictures of it.

accuatly i was wrong it was the a-109 i thought the gear had gone into those pods but it didn't. sorry. you have to admit that it does look like it shares the same frame as the jet ranger. I know bell and agusta team up on helicopters but it looks like the same designer worked on both, to me anyway.

Well i feel that unwrap is a nightmare, but step by step i´m going over this.

I reworking over the model because my first one was low poly based, and the new one will be fully of details and with smooth surfaces.

Ain't that the truth. imo that is by far the hardest step. There are some good tutorials on u-toob though if you need a

bit of inspiration or some fresh ideas. Hang in there it looks fab so far, I think you're making good progress : )

Well this weekend i worked a bit on it.

A car crashed into eletricity lines near of my house and broken my phone line so i got 4 days without internet, but now its ok.

I take a lot of pictures to use as reference from B206 of my friend, now i got some to play with interior and exterior.

Exterior is with UV 90% done.

The model actually is with 17k of Polys.

That looks really good Conex! Still a lot to go, but great beginnings.

EDIT: Shouldn't this be in Helicopter Development Notices?

Yes i need to work on detail lines, they will bring more life to the helicopter.

Nevermind, have this section on the forum?
