    Haha I know but I'm enjoying laying on the couch using my eee. Downloading it would require going downstairs on my rig!

    I post here too.. often

    Thanks for the kind review, guys.. I really enjoyed making this model.. been in the works since last June. The fun parts were animating the rudder-vators.. and I got tired of trying to make a compass gauge look right, and function well, in a VC..so I modeled and animated the whole thing..

    I LOVE this model - thank you Brett Henderson :ernae:

    there is a question - can the interior cockpit plexi 'reflections' be reduced or eliminated?

    You know ? I'm not even sure where those come from. I spent a lot of time trying to get the tinting right (have you noticed how it goes from darker at the top, to lighter at the bottom, and has that neat "color" to it ; from the exterior view?).. and that seems to be a by-product when the same glass is used for the interior view, which I prefer to an over-bearing reflection of the interior that you find in most models.. it really screws up night vision.

    Aside from me opening the Gmax source-file, and reducing opacity.. playing with the alpha/spec/spec-alpha might work. I included a layered paint kit if someone feels brave.

    If there seem to be enough issues reported to warrant a patch.. I'll put this on the list.

    LOL.. now you've gone and done it

    That's how it SHOULD be .. so now I'll never fix it

    Seriously though, it'll be on the list.. :salute:

    Brett - thank you for your reply - and yes I am very impressed with the way the glass looks in exterior view. The tinting is especially well executed and believe me, I was loath to make any critique at all.

    but the 'tiger striping' on the glass in the interior view is mildly distracting to me - but I will not let it stop me from using the V tail - it really is a terrific job of modeling.
