Thanks, I think wheels unless it can take off vertically.

The direction I've gone since typing out my post is to have VTOL capabilities....

Spoiler:

Last image is the Landing Gear extended (Left) and Retracted (Right)Not liking the cockpit canopy atm... but the rest is what I'd call finished

[Experiment 442]

Love it

[Merlin1701]

I want to create glows like that...442, does podium do it?

[Saquist]

I'm not seeing nothing on these computers at work...none of the images are coming even my own SIG.

Is this just me?

[Experiment 442]

Which ones? It can do the landing gear ones and, with a bit of imagination, the engine glow nicely.

It could be the computers where you work. Are they set to block images?

Bobs latest pics are not show up as anything but x's

They were working last week just fine, So not that I know of.

[Merlin1701]

how do you do the glows in podium, cant figure it out in kerkythea.

[thekillman]

podium is nothing more but a small "popup" with two bars, a drop down menu, a render and a stop button.

the two bars allow for mirrors and light. essentially, you can set the amount of light a surface emits

-and refelcts. When done with iso, L.E.M.s and spotlights, the results can be wonderful.

An engine glow from the Aria a few weeks back with refecltion and iso lights with an LEM in the far back nossle.

update on my long range science ship, that has been scaled to just over 700m long.

[immhotep]

Really like this.

[Dr Lee]

so do i.....

I'd love to see you do a fleet render when this is done.

[Merlin1701]

cheers chaps, I wanted to create a Tauri/ Lantean ship but added a few curves to add a slight Asgard feel.
