In the process of modeling and animating an Alleghany 2-6-6-6. Never knew how difficult train Riggs were till now...almost complete just have to get drive wheels hooked up!

FYI ...Blender 2.8 has optional plug-ins with tools specifically for 3d-Printing. Newer video series

Was looking for a decent set of plan views for an Alleghany 1601, and ran across some useful stuff you may like/need... The O'Timers probably have these but Newbies could use the info... First this one Book of Railroad Buildings with elevations and floor plans. It has UMPTEEN thousand...

I still have mine and don't relish the idea of EVER losing them... The same goes for my appendix!! Get well soon! ...on a side note: around here we have tons of HOT green Chile...tends to burn them suckers out!!

Ready to get into a design phase? Moveable Mecha Design Model the clothing OR cut your own patterns out of cloth and sew them...( it's not hard to do ) Good Luck!!!

Some good info on the Sherman Tank Site HERE and all the pictures in the world HERE I never really thought about it..but this engine is a Monster!! Talk about 5 engines on a central crank!! OMG!

Yep, 1934 !!

Welcome to Zealot!!! That is wonderful your kids get to learn this hobby along with you...It should happen more often! As always, if you have any questions or need some help or advice, please ask. Someone her will always try to help!

Hmm...I think I would laminate a "V" out of mat board, it's already close to 2mm thick. It could be added to the horizontal section and then the "V" sections could be extended into the nacelles.

Looks very clean and nice... I have had this one for ages as well...If I ever get bored. this might be a nice distraction! I found this sometimes ago and thought it would be fun to adapt back to the original concept, as it was never used.

Just ran across this in my old Spaceship category, looking for something else..I tend to grab reference images when-ever I find them and must have grabbed this awhile back...It might be a project with some potential for greebles or even a Soda Can project!

OMG! Amazing! We will have to get a final weight count on this, you know!!

Hey, wait...Didn't you just have one of these?:eek: Happy Birthday!!!

Amazing talent in all these shows! Thank you for sharing these pictures with us!!!

Just checked and they don't do a Spitfire ( yet) but they have this beautiful P51D Mustang...Talk about DETAIL! You can find these at many places like e-bay and Amazon.

I did another variation of the P40, a P40b fully articulated flaps, ailerons, prop, and landing gear the works...animation is too big but here is a screen render...( cut down version)

It's P40-Kittyhawk...I have a Supermarine Spitfire somewhere around here modeled down to the dirt under the control knobs...worked so much on it, my computer will barely run with it loaded! I do suppose you are talking Card Model..the one I created is WAY WAY too detailed! I'll look around and...

Good idea! Now on to the main problem and referring to @zathros reply and the fiddly bits... ack! If you are trying to roll paper tubes, it helps to have something that is round and is close to the final size to form it around. I know, I know, sounds obvious, doesn't it? Look around the house...

Guess it all boils down to how you use stuff...in Blender 2.81RC3
