A real beauty. Wings are rather thin though, don't know if you have trouble
getting thickness for them or if it was intended. Any normals used? I
couldn't tell. Nice jet anyway.

A very nice animation of a very nice object!
I'm still trying to get the hang of animation technically-wise, and I
wonder if you would like to disclose what you used to arrive at this
result: TGA's processed by ??? :-)

I would have to agree with Bob here. The wings seem way too thin.

Actually, two tools. First used BMP2AVI to render an uncompressed AVI
(easier to work with when syncing up with soundtracks) ... then ported that
over to an MPEG using bbMPEG... which I have to say, is the absolute best
encoder I've ever used, freeware or otherwise.

Yeah, I've since fixed the wings... was using a single bezier patch object
in Moray, but when it came time to add markings, etc... needed to use a
second object so that the image maps didn't "bleed through" to the
underside. As far as the normals... I did use surface normals, mostly on the
titanium components (flaps, etc)... basically, created all of the textures
I'd need, then created a material map GIF in PSP. My only issue now is to
cut a hole in the cockpit and add a pilot and instrumentation... figgered
I'd get everything done in Moray, export, and pull a clipped_by on the
forward cockpit using an inverted lathe object.
