[WIP]F-19

[+Julhelm 266]

One of my favourite concept-aircraft, and I used to play the Amiga version of F-19 religiously. This one clocks in at around 5000 something tris at the moment. I've worked out the control surfaces based on the Testors kit, with the elevator-thingy behind the exhaust, rudders on the fins and some kind of spoilers on the very small wings.

That's really cool! A genuine "Frisbee", just what we needed for a "Red Storm Rising" campaign. If you want some pointers on creating the FM for it, let me know, and I'll hook you up with the guys from AirTevRon 5.

Thanks! To be honest, I would probably need a real "dummy" tutorial on how to rig/animate/export stuff to WoV. Does such a tutorial exist?

My suggestion is that you apply for membership at www.column5.us. The majority of the modelers hang out there, and you'll find them more than willing to help you out.

WOW!

 

I too remember flying the Microprose F-19 on the Amiga & PC.

 

Really looking forward to this one. Thanks.

Hey Julhelm! My anticipation of an f-19 is beyond belief! :)

 

Got a little problem though, I'm not able to see your wip shots You couldn't perhaps use the file attachments option below the post box could you? Sorry if I'm sounding a rude, just that the f-19 is super stuff!

 

Thanks!

I hope he does Bibbo... it's a great looking model he has going there.

[+Julhelm 266]

Sorry, the ftp I was using seems to have gone down the deep end, but a quick Apache install solved that dilemma :)

[+Jimbib 746]

Solved it like a treat! Thanks Julhelm! Looks exactly like my die-cast model :) Best of lcuk with this dude!

Wow that looks really nice! I remember building a model of this. Can't wait to try it out.

[+Julhelm 266]

Primary flight testing has begun.

[gladiator1332 0]

Man that's awesome. Keep us updated with some pics of the flight testing. Really cool to see this thing in action.

 

Oh, and for anyone who is interested, here is a link to an article about the F-19, rather interesting:

very cool!

Just curious, will the F-19 actually be stealth in SF? Or will it still show up on enemy radar?

[+Julhelm 266]

Not sure.

In 2012 I saw a wonderful Julhelm's model of F-19 here, and ask the author for the permission to use it in my F-19 Stealth Fighter revival project.

Described it here:

Julhelm, can I use your F-19 model in my game?

Would you like to join it as a 3D-modeller?
