    Questions about Rhino3D and the Lofting of a simple Hull

    Thanks! I think "Ortho" may a contributed to my frustration. I keep forgetting to un-click it after certain steps. "OnSnap" is proving to be very useful.

    Questions about Rhino3D and the Lofting of a simple Hull

    I keep getting stuck on the "Rotate 3D". It will only rotate XY axis and I can't get it to rotate on any other one.

    Thanksgiving Turkey

    Wish I would've seen this last week! Really cute design. This would have been nice to keep the kids occupied over the Thanksgiving break.

    Questions about Rhino3D and the Lofting of a simple Hull

    Working on the first part... I work through the steps a couple times, to make sure I was retaining the info. Laying it out.. Half way there... Here I had a little trouble with the "Control Point Curve" tool doing what I need it to do. Figured it out, eventually. Doing the Sweep...

    Questions about Rhino3D and the Lofting of a simple Hull

    I'm working through the tutorial first. When I complete it, I'll post my success. I read through it, first. and then started following the steps. It wasn't too difficult to understand. To be honest, this is the best tutorial for a beginner I've seen on the web, yet! :Bravo:

    Here's today's update. I made one of these...took me awhile to figure it out, but afterwards it was smooth sailing. I wish I could say the say about the craftsmanship. I got a little sloppy here. Since I'm planning on building another one, I'm using this one as practice. Seeing things come...

    Haha! I was hoping to catch some Buck Rogers while I built this, but, I settled for BSG. @Rhaven Blaack - Does the cockpit work with the Thunder Fighter Original?

    I just got a nice shipment of Index paper: 163-199 gsm, Sizes 8x10, 8x14 and 11x17. And, with a printer full of ink, someone is ready for the next project! Original Thunder Fighter!

    Ferrari Engine design and build

    I tend to set the bar pretty high (for myself). But, I have learned to reel in my ambitions. I'm also looking forward to other models you build!

    @Rhaven Blaack - Thanks, I feel a sense of completeness now. I was looking through all the mods for the TF kit and decided to start with the original. That's definitely the kind of passion for the craft that I admire. I'm beginning my build of the original Thunder Fighter kit (just received a...
