Centurion-1 Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 Looks great, but the main ADI housing could use a bit of a meshsmooth! Also, MachOneManuals carries the Hawk T1A manual http://www.flight-manuals.com/bae-hawk-tmk11a-aircrew-manual-r11.html No reference material like the original drawings from the manual, also a lot of technical information too for making avionics / functions. It might be available for free somewhere but I've found it well worth the cost of the two manuals I've bought. Search scribd.com first tho, there is a bunch of flight manuals there. Quote
+russouk2004 Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 yeah its basic atm m8 still few things to finalize as I go... thnx for link. Quote
+russouk2004 Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 (edited) this is addictive... started main cockpit but thats boring bit...bits I like here.. ignore stretch marks etc still wip...:) Edited April 23, 2014 by russouk2004 5 Quote

Centurion-1 Posted April 24, 2014 Posted April 24, 2014 Looking quite neat, you have a nice style of making stuff! Yes, at it's best making cockpits can be quite fun.. at it's worst tho.. Quote
+russouk2004 Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 (edited) Bit more...god this is time consuming doing details lol.(especially when working from about 20 pics etc )..good fun tho and satisfying when doing a part and it works lol place holders on some meshes last 2 pics dcs cockpit...gonna buy Track IR im converted Edited April 27, 2014 by russouk2004 1 Quote
+russouk2004 Posted April 29, 2014 Posted April 29, 2014 Main and left panel mostly done...right panel underway...big pics im enjoying this 4 Quote
+russouk2004 Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 (edited) few more bits done. few random renders..after seeing the upcoming fantastic dcs mig21 pit I wondered why bother?...lol had to make all new texture jpegs to paint in case I dont get permission to borrow bits etc...so been remapping stuff...few more panel bits to make,and map then start on exterior,then seat,etc etc got good pics for the pilots legs ,hands etc.. enjoying this,might even do back seat view to use...we`ll see..

Centurion-1 Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 Yeah the DCS MiG-21bis cockpit is a wonder to be sure, as close to photorealism as one can get I gather. But your's is looking great indeed! Quote
+russouk2004 Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 got ideas for the cockpit,found great stuff for a worn pit textures...also few good items for reflections etc etc...gonna bust a gut on this... Quote
+russouk2004 Posted May 5, 2014 Posted May 5, 2014 nearly done with right panel...then its onto,control column, then main cockpit spars,framing and bits n pieces,and front framing etc.after that.lastly seat,etc,and over shoulder view bits. 1 Quote
+russouk2004 Posted May 7, 2014 Posted May 7, 2014 ok...stick added...so many different pics of them...gone with this...all panels done(controls etc) apart from night lights which is easy to do later.. next main sides and front framing next... 3 Quote
Centurion-1 Posted May 8, 2014 Posted May 8, 2014 That is really good work Russ, and fast too! If you intend to do more Brit cockpits you certainly have your work cut out for you (Tornado, Jaguar Gr....) Quote
+russouk2004 Posted May 8, 2014 Posted May 8, 2014 Fast?...lol Im skinning as I go...thats one thing that slowed me down in past,mass mapping and texturing start to get tedious after a few weeks lol...this way more done,and mapped\textured bit by bit... Quote
+russouk2004 Posted May 9, 2014 Posted May 9, 2014 (edited) Rudder pedals...nearly forgot them...just got to add the mechanisms for them...which reminds me...if memory serves,we only need animate canopy to match external model animation?...throttle,stick levers etc are ini driven I know..i think lol Edited May 9, 2014 by russouk2004 1 Quote
Centurion-1 Posted May 9, 2014 Posted May 9, 2014 Yeah correct. You can use the animationID=X method for other stuff too for example gear levers and stuff, anything that might have a more complex animation. Anyways, looking good! Quote
