Modded Airplanes

More work now on the base model. Still at the flat rendering stage. The wings, yeah they can wait for now.

So from the initial basic flat artwork, I’ve now worked some details in to the engines. Still in illustrator so still flat. They do look more like it though. Engines to power the future. Next step for them will be PS.

Thought I’d just share an update on that engine. It’s STILL in illustrator. UGGGG. :wink: And needs more cleanup, reworking as well. I just felt that the horizontal PS layer styles didn’t give me a sense of the curvature of the engine, while doing that in IL is more or less straight forward. Then some grunge and textures…

PS A more revised version. I wasn’t happy and still not. Needs more refinement. Yes I’m still in the Illustrator phase. :joy: Details need putting back into place. and the mount needs everything doing to it.


PPS Why spend so much work and effort on just an engine. Well, that’s how current mods are done. It’s as simple as that. I’m just replicating how things are currently accomplished,

It took a bit longer than I had hoped for as I had to learn a new program to get more detail to my models :slight_smile: and I am very busy at work :frowning:. But finally I can give you a preview of my Airbus A380:


A high detail picture will be uploaded later on ass there is still a lot to do to the model. :blush:

Beautiful build and sorry for the additional work :yum:. Shame I think the A380 is a plane only its mother could love. She’s looking well through, great work. You’ve really been working on this one as well so much I can tell. I’d give more likes if I could.

As @Spokkel did you’ve built pseudo large stands for these big birds as per my build reqs for large stands. They looks so much better like that. :slight_smile:

I might have a compatible range of engines soon as well.

hahah no worries it only makes it better for me to get more satisfaction on my models @Rubble.
Sadly the game takes away lots of the detail although i already use 8092px image. The model is perfectly fine when I transform it to PNG but the scaling in the game makes it bad :frowning:

You guys are really killing it with these new airplanes.

I’ve been not as active in the past few months. Has there been any update on the progress of the ACEO Modding Application?

Slow I would say. Patrick said himself the other day he’d not touched his computer in over a month. Unless there are others working on it that we don’t know about?
