What version and tools did you use to make it

andnbsp; By Drew46 on Friday, March 02, 2001 – 04:48 pm: andnbsp;

I used 3DC V3.32 Pro. I used a cylinder with the extrude tool for the fuselage. I created the fuselage with 9 sections of 32 sided cylinder extrusion.

The wings were made from a 6 sided cylinder with one extrusion.

I’ll use the boolean op’s to hollow out the model before using it for simulation.

Thanks to all who responded!

I’ll post as I tweak the model.

Drew46,
That is one great looking model. One question, how did you get the cutout area for the cockpit?

andnbsp; By Drew46 on Monday, March 12, 2001 – 09:20 pm: andnbsp;

I used a box, squeezed it down to a more rectangular box and did a boolean subtract.

Boolean’s allow really neat affects!

Thanks for the tip about the booleans.
