Bud model 3D and French livery of the QR-34

[ftsx.free.lw]

Hello all

1/ I saw this bug at the back of the cockpit.

 

2/ The pilot in the front seat has a more sensitive LOD, because he disappears in the close-up before the pilot in the rear.

 

3/ The pilots are always too low, but I think the seats are also too low, or is the canopy too curved?
Comparison between the real model and the 3D model:

 

For the textures of the French model, I find most of the decals too big in width and height, and sometimes misplaced or different. See my photos of this plane for comparison.
If you like, I can send you my PSD file of this model, which I made with Tim Conrad's T-33. This file also contains the French stencils and other markings, which may not be as accurate as yours, but it will give you their location and numbers. Also, the metal finish of this device is extremely shiny and the color is closer to a very very light gray. All surfaces are polished, except for a few areas on the intrados, which can be seen in a photo. Unfortunately, I haven't yet mastered the new painting methods.

Thanks to your teams for the work already done !

Your livery looks very nice. Are you considering releasing it on flightsim.to?

This is a nice comparison showing the pilots being too low in the cockpit. My dad was the same stature as me while flying 28 years in the RCAF as a test pilot. at around 145-155 pounds and a smaller stature pilot, he still was sitting very much higher in the cockpit. I would love to see a fix for this in the future. I know inibuilds are aware of this problem.

These sequence of photos are of my father doing ejection seat testing on October 8, 1957 near Uplands Ottawa,Ontario.

The inibuilds pilots look to be about 4 foot 6 feet tall.

I didn't mean in the title Bud but bug, typing error and not possible to correct afterwards. On the other hand, by analyzing more closely with my profile picturesome requests. The tip tanks are not compliant, my real ones are more pointed. The main landing gear doors are not properly positioned. The front shock absorber is not compressed enough. I know it's not easy but you must have modeled on a bad profile... The best thing to do is to recalibrate on a 3D scan !

Probably for this the problem with the pilots too low and seats as well as the exhaust on the left side ect...ect...
