Excellent!

To combine real-world history, and extract visuals, via FS, to bring those memories alive once more.. wow! This is what it's all about!

+1

There should be a new post made with the video link, for those who may not have checked...

Great to see how you have used your FS artistic skills to bring the story of these men alive!

We need this sort of history telling to try to keep the memory of these people alive and to not forget the hard won lessens our countries got in 1940. Sadly it looks like most of the politicians here in Europe have done exactly that..

Very nice movie, Daan! Applause!

[Dutcheeseblend]

Thanks everybody for the kind comments! Don't forget: the shots, editing and so on have been done by JRSchiphol

Meanwhile continuing work on the T.5. The panel:

It's the Blend4Web webplayer, that allows you to export a Blender file directly to a .html which others can view. Gives a nice impression IMHO.

Looks promising Daan, but still a very long way to go!

Cheers,

Just now ran in to the video. Great job Daan

[Dutcheeseblend]

Thanks! Indeed I've a long way to go...

Anyway, some progress on the panelwork. I added the elektrical panel today and did an export to the sim. Looks pretty satisfactory.

From the pilot's viewpoint (yes, he was sitting on the left while his panel was on the right...)



The electrical panel, with the Ragonot fuseholders (does anyone have information on these fuseholders?)



And the VC from the viewpoint of the second pilot in his rest position. The bombardier/commander's workplace could be accessing by walking below the panel. Bomp!



Regards!

Getting better and better!

[Dutcheeseblend]

Thank you thank you

Did a render yesterday of both panels. Only thing left are some fasteners and labels, maybe I need top optimize the panel in terms of modelling. Unsure whether I'll do the needles now or later...
Anyway, I hope to achieve an AO bake on my textures with this quality. I should keep the texture not too dark, I think, in order to achieve that...

Back again, with some work on the left side console of the pilot. Here are located: the main engine controls, as wel as rudder controls.


As seen from the observer/commander's position:

Thanks Cees! I'm beginning to like this project more and more.

Made the control column today.

I improved the yoke according to references that were sent me.

The new yoke:



The animated sleeve:



This is one single object and is animated by a skinned mesh animation. Everything works fine fortunately.
