3D artwork: Secret Weapons of the Luftwaffe – part 3 – Junkers Ju EF 100

Sorry for the late reply. I am using 3DSMAX. But the latest versions of C4D are pretty good too, I believe! 🙂

I’m sure you’ll enjoy it.

I have one of it over Mont Blanc somewhere, but I can´t find it now and the lighting was bad anyway. The colours actually looked OK, on screen when I did it , but I´m rather starting to think that that monitor had seen better days!! It was just a fun thing to do and I have to admit I wasn´t bothered about authenticity.

What software do you use anyhow? I have been thinking about doing some more of these to keep my hand in, but Cinema 4d is a bit limiting really.

Quite nice! You should do a nice render with it (and yes… change the colours to something slightly more authentic ;))

Small version of one of my own efforts, modelled and textured by myself.

No doubt I´ll get shot to bits for my somewhat fanciful paintjob! Hey, I was just a young green kid back then….

Thanks guys!

Good to see you here too, Evžen!

James, the backgrounds are shot with a 6 MP digital SLR from an airliner. I think this one was taken from a Malev Airbus, flying from Hungary to England 🙂
I always take a camera with me when flying somewhere.

Glorious! As ever!

Having done some 3d modelling – hats off to you Skyraider! Very nice work. Where do you get your cloudy backgrounds from?

That is so beautiful, Ronnie!!.
Fantastic.

Here is a new render of this silver beauty 🙂

I hope you like it!

Thanks a lot for your comments, guys! Very much appreciated 🙂

would have been interesting to see it flying

aj_march, I’m working on a little fly-by animation of it. Nothing too funky, but once it’s done I’ll put it here.

TexanTomcat, thanks! I need to redo the NA-57 though, as I recently saw some new photos of it and it turns out the whole belly was yellow!

It could well have been the Condor replacement. And a big one at that!

LOL Damien! 🙂

Next subjects: F4U Corsair and Fw 190 A-8 and a lot more Mustangs…

Great image – it almost looks like a genuine photograph. It may have been intended as a civil airliner but so was the Condor! Imagine a fully loaded squadron of these headed westward….

Can i just say that i spent a wonderful few minutes on your website – the German NA16 is now on my desktop and the fact that you teach others how to do it is well – brilliant –

I also have a copy of Doug Macphails SK16 book and now it all makes sense…small world innit

Good work fella!

TT

Quite superb – I dunno how ya does it!

Is it computer based (I am a Luddite) or IRL artwork – it looks photorealistic so I cant tell!
