Misc. Assets

Wanted to have a break on the Concorde for a bit so I decided to work on some of the structual assets. The screenshot above is of a wall segment. Adding to the whitebox as soon as it's built.

Concorde - Body + Wings

More work done on the main body. Added the tail fin and currently working on the wings. I'll return to work more on the body to get it as accurate as possible.

Concorde Body

The nose went through several iterations before getting it's current state. The earlier iterations had unusual topology which were very apparent on the renders even with turbosmooth. Now working on the main body.

Concorde - Nose

Working on the nose on 3DS Max. Also did a little research into the nose droop mechanism, which would be neat to include.

Should be finished by tonight, afterwards I'll get around to modelling the body.

Also got the blueprints for the production model.

Updated Whitebox

Started working on the Concorde. The only good blueprints I could find were of the testing prototype, but I plan getting a model kit of the BA passenger model which should have the blueprints and the correct decals. Exported this current version of the Concorde into UDK as a placeholder.

The Concorde was larger than I expected so I had to expand the hangar to allow it to fit inside. It's about 62m x 10m x 25.5m in real life thus assuming 1UDK Unit = 1Max Units = 2cm so I modelled it approx so that the dimensions were around 3050 x 360 x 1360 Max units.
