Lansen Update

[+Timmy 1]

I figured I'd keep everyone up to date as to where we are with this project.

 

Here are some screen renders.

 

 

 

I've got it in game so Lexx can work his magic on it - but she still needs quite a bit of 3D work. You know the drill. Two weeks.

 

I'm happy to fix things that aren't right so if you want to complain that something is wrong - do it now.

Lansen is one of my favourite Swedish Jets (The Others are Draken & Viggen)

Great work, Timmy!

[Kirsten 0]

Looks great, never saw one except on the scrapdump of Lulea airbase somewhere back in the seventies.

But the Swedish Airforce is one hell of an airforce, the more SAABS the merrier..........

Would be a nice addition !!

 

Aju,

Great work Timmy!!! Keep it up .

Your Saab 32 Lansen is looking really good. It seems you are doing the A 32(Attack) Will you do the the J 32(Fighter) and S 32(Recon) too?

 

For you that don't know what Lansen is you can read about it here:

[Lexx_Luthor 57]

um...this a nice model indeed. Wow!

 

Timmy, I just looked at it last night. I'll get on FM soon enough.

[+Julhelm 266]

Ah cool a Lansen. It's the only Swedish combat jet remaining not in-game.

There is also the SK-60, so you're wrong.

[+Timmy 1]

In yet more self promotion - here's where I am with mapping and skinning the J-32A.

 

[Spinners 15,968]

Wow! Looking really good. I've enjoyed reading up on this relatively little-known Swedish sexplane.

[+Timmy 1]

Let me tell you a secret kids, mapping an aircraft sucks ass.

 

It's not the mapping that's difficult. It's the mapping that will make for good skins that sucks. Each and every polygon has to be placed on a flat surface in such a way that when you put color on it - the rivets won't distort - and the decals don't bleed all over the train...

 

GUEST #4:

No, the food was excellent.

MAÎTRE D:

Perhaps you're not... happy with the service?

GUEST #4:

No, no. No complaints.

GUEST #4'S WIFE:

It's just that we have to go. I'm having rather a heavy period.

GUEST #3:

Hmm.

GUEST #3'S WIFE:

Mm mm.

GUEST #4:

And... we... have... a... train to catch.

MAÎTRE D:

Ah.

GUEST #4'S WIFE:

Oh. Yes. Yes, of course. We have a train to catch, and I don't want to start bleeding all over the seats. Ha, hm hm hm.

MAÎTRE D:

Madam?

GUEST #4:

Perhaps we should be going.

GUEST #4'S WIFE:

Oh.

MAÎTRE D:

Oh! Very well, monsieur. Thank you so much. So nice to see you, and I hope very much we will see you again very soon. Au revoir, monsieur.

[+Julhelm 266]

If you split the fuselage at the right points lengthwise, distortion should be a non-issue.

[DarthRevan 3]

Looking really good keep it up

[+Jug 99]

Great work Timmy!!! Keep it up .

Ditto!

[+76.IAP-Blackbird 3,545]

Any update?!

[+Timmy 1]

I'll have the re-mapping complete by Tuesday. Skinning continues. Lexx is in charge of the FM. He'll get to that when he gets to it. I'll probably release the model as a beta (without FM or good skin) by the end of the week unless RL decides to put the smack down on me.

[Lexx_Luthor 57]

Yeah I'll have get on this. I'll use some advice in the Bear Problem thread about how to get it stable on the ground.

[+Timmy 1]

I've got it sitting on the ground and not dancing/exploding. I'll send you what I have as soon as I get the mapping completed.
