    Finally finished the texturing the model and fixed some errors I had in pepa when exporting from SU. Now for the tedious unfolding work. There is 230 parts so yeah. Going to be some work still to be done.

    Castle of Good Hope - South Africa Cape Town

    Sorry I have no clue. I just use the map from google earth and guessed the height. Maybe if you measure the cars in the parking lot you might get a rough estimate.

    Castle of Good Hope - South Africa Cape Town

    I made this for a colleague at work who's son had to make a model of a land mark in Cape Town. This model is very simple to construct since it was made for a 12 year in mind. Feel free to download it, it can be found with my other models under buildings at my mediafire page ...

    BattleField 2142 - L-5 Riesig

    Only have to finish texturing a small part then I can copy and flip the rest and import into pepakura and do the unfolding. I have so little time these days but I hope to finish this soon. I think trying to make the original texture fit to my model is what is time consuming. My model isnt...

    BattleField 2142 - L-5 Riesig

    Texturing is going well. I am using the ingame texture for my model, but making it fit is hard since my dimensions are not the same as the ingame model but I think it looks pretty close to the ingame model :) The top of the model and about 3/4 of the legs are done. Then just need to do the mid...

    Finally done making the model. It has been slow going with me having to little time. Now onto making the texture. This is the 3rd time I modeled the L5 from scratch and I think I am now happy with the looks and dimentions. It looks pretty close to the ingame model I think.

    BattleField 2142 - L-5 Riesig

    Have been hard at work since I am redoing the model from scratch. Just about all the dimentions was wrong and the model did not even look close to the ingame model. I forgot about the ingame model I recieved from another member a while back and rendered some views and have been using those for...

    BattleField 2142 - L-5 Riesig

    OK. Finally mapped the base camo texture I made. Think it came out ok'sh. Best I can do with my limited skills. Now I just have to add some details and decals and do the unfold work. :)

    BattleField 2142 - L-5 Riesig

    Thanks shiftdel. I have been in a mental craze and finally figured out how to make it look ok with most of the camo matching up. I am applying the tex in sketchup by using the project method and seems to work good. Only problem is I still need to add some details to the camo. But thanks again...

    BattleField 2142 - L-5 Riesig

    The model is done and I imported the blank into pepakura to check for errors and all is fine. So now into the next hurdle. How and where does one start to create a texture. I want to try and use a camo scheme but if I apply the texture in SU it doesn't match up with the corners and doesn't...

    BattleField 2142 - L-5 Riesig

    I finally started working on the L5 again. I lost just about all my work but maybe that was a good thing. A lot of the parts did not look right but I think this time round it looks way better and should be quite easy to build. I am using the box method I learned to build mechs from shiftdel and...

    BattleField 2142 - L-5 Riesig

    Thanks alot. I got it. Will start to re-work it (again :( ) but at least I know that it will be correct this time. This is what I had up untill now : As you can see the texture for the top is no where near in a good fit.

    BattleField 2142 - L-5 Riesig

    Started texturing some parts but I can already see some of the parts size / porpotions are not correct. I will wait for nothing and rather use his model as reference. Hopefully the texture will fit better then. It is a real pain in SU to make textures fit.

    BattleField 2142 - L-5 Riesig

    Can any one please post me a side , back , front and top and perhaps a 3D ingame shot of the Riesig. I re-done the torso part and want to start texturing it now. I think it looks way better now. The barrels might be a bastich to build.
