Just the thunderbird without all the lettering will be great.Definitely leave the smoky engines in!I have a different name over on my other forum.The image must be 256x256 and no more than 20k .
You are a very talented person Letum.What does an Airbus painted like a thunderbird look like but retaining the Monarch logo on the fuselage??

I am so envious of people who can create artwork like that.

How did you do that Letum? I'd be curious to give it a go myself.

I used a rather expensive program called 3ds Max, however there are plenty of
other free programs that can do just as well.

All take quite some time to learn, but it is fun.
If you are interested and have some time, give me a PM and I will see if I can set
you in the right direction.

.

I find it cool that you managed to port that into 3dsmax. That is where I'm having issue. I have an older version of 3dsmax around here somewhere (from about 2002/2003 time frame), but never understood how one would import an object without physically drawing it.

I have Blender too, but most of my drawings were always 2D in AutoCAD LT's various revs. I must look into this importation thing.

Thanks man!

Importing?

I made the object!

Subdivision: 30 mins
UVWing: 20mins
Texturing: err....10 seconds? :P

Nothing special really. I'm hoping to cover over the poor quality in photoshop.

Nice work.

Linton asked for an avatar, so 256x256 makes sense (actually, it's pretty generous for an av).

Well, here it is at 256x256 with no text of extras.....a little dull.
