+76.IAP-Blackbird 3,557 Posted February 16, 2015 That looks fantastic, I hope i can convince Enoc for a nice Specular Map pls take care of the part of the main gear that is connected to the wings .. you can see in your belly pic that there is no 3D part that connects the gear with the wings.

+Geezer 3,569 Posted February 17, 2015 Impressive work. Natural metal finish is extremely difficult to simulate well, but you've done it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+76.IAP-Blackbird 3,557 Posted September 15, 2015 (edited) Perfect news!!!! Thanks for creating more version. Could you pls check one thing on your J-7 generaly? The front canopy bar looks a bit odd fro mthe front view. I have noticed "sharp" edges on it and the shape seems not be correct. I have drwan some lines into your last render. On the left side you can see a corrected shape and on the right side i have marked with yellow lines the strange edges. Maybe im wrong on the shape but it doesnt look "right" Pls check it and tell me what you think here you can see the round shape of that frame ...

+russouk2004 6,958 Posted September 15, 2015 yeah but im limited to the existing fuselage polys as ive joined the glass,canopy and fuse to edit as one mesh...I would need to redo the fuse mesh...mebbe I ll see if i can do it another way Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+76.IAP-Blackbird 3,557 Posted September 15, 2015 I use triangles to get more polys at one end than on the other, works so far, but yes you need to redo the canopy glas, canopyframe, front cockpit frame and the windshield .. but that will be worth the work. Would recomend this upgrade on that area also for your already released MiG-21F mod the J-7 I sometimes cut out parts and copy paste then (integrate them) into the model. It works fine and the mapping would stay the same. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+baffmeister 1,205 Posted September 17, 2015 Geez, I think this plane is going to drag me kicking and screaming out of the seventies and into the nineties, at least with my "thirdworldish" fictional install. Here is a link that gives a general idea of the performance improvements over the MiG-21. http://urbanpk.com/pakdef/pakmilitary/airforce/ac/f7pg.htm 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+whiteknight06604 934 Posted November 20, 2015 I hope I do not come off like I want to rush anyones work or tell them how they should spend their free time but I do check everyday to see if there is any updates on this model. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
