Great Work Keep It Up!… I was just wondering if you could make a tutorial on modelling and rendering a car
Question: The lines between the panels are very thin, but when I draw lines with 1px in Gimp they become rather wide (like on your engine). How do you create a line that's very fine?
Can somebody tell me the difference between Mark Seam and Crease…? What to use where and all..?
Guys you could just layer the blueprint over the UV unwarp and make the opacity like 50% so you know exactly where everything goes, it's pretty handy
My "import as planes" Isn't working :/
11:21 "whoop whoop whoop"
38:09 "the glass shader doesn't work for this sort of thing"…. you are very wrong… it dies but you are not using the proper image and if you were you wouldn't even be applying it properly… you need to clock on the world icon add sky texture and import HDRI it can be clouds… the ocean…. whatever you want and of cours by doing what I jus said you dont need to keep the camera in 1 position.. you can move it about as you have an (HDRI) picture with makes the sky look 3D so you can turn the camera up or on either side + (you will need some sort of land unless you are not pointing camera down)
I dont get why did you add the background image as a plane rather than adding it in the compositor
Want to see a face on a plane? Look up Alaska Airlines. Colors + Logo on an airline is its "livery".
every time i put the decals on the plane i dont see it ….same thing with the windows and doors could some one help m
Remarks on the gray were that the paint is considerably heavy and expensive. Given the public can not see the underside (appearance and logo) when the air or notice it when on the ground they are not painted. Everyone else were doing it except American and the industry may follow their example.
These areas are also areas where slower air is an advantage to provide lift and prevent the engines from blowing out. (just my thought).
I made a pretttttyy bad nighthawk replica with this 🙂 probs should have chosen an easier plane
when you changed smaples a ~32 you chose the render and not preview selection, to preview u can press ctrl + z …. I can only asssume that you already know that though
Hello ! I found a faster and easier way of making several edges lining up, where you would otherwise have got to press s+x/y/z+0 , the solution is makros ! I could use razer's implemented makro setup, but I'm sure their are many other ways of setting makros up. as basic as it sounds, you make your makro press say s -> y -> 0 . play it once and no latency between the keys. Assign it to any key (preferably a mouse key, if available) and you will have much more fun especially when UV editing ! 😉
Thanks 🙂
It's fun to hear you story-telling when doing something we all know how to do, so you storytell to don't get us bored, lol.
Oh man you truly saved my master thesis. Friendly greetings from Germany and thank you!
What's The App Called?
Not tried this yet but seems like a great tutorial 🙂 thanks
hey how you add background wallpaper doing fast man whooooooooooooooo
crashes into wtc
Amazing and inspiring!!! great tutorial
A good free online photo editor is Pixlr, if anybody doesn't have Photoshop or Gimp
Anyone have any ideas why if I save photoshop windows and doors as a PNG the material is all black and when I use JPG it comes out fine?
Good video. Just to answer a few of your questions:
1. The wing-engine connector is called an engine pylon
2. The numers on the planes are registration numbers. They are country specific (America begins with N, Australia with VH, .S. Korea with HL etc),
3. The silver lips on the engines are because of the anti-ice systems which pump hot air throught them (paint would cook off and impede their efficiency)
I'm using Add-on called uv_tool. Download from here:

What is this bug, when object suddenly disappearing from render? Icon show in render still toggled on. =/
Unwrapping in cycles still not fixed 😛
+Blender Guru good job !! why don't you participate at the developement and creation of airplanes for flightgear :

Thanks for the tutorial mate 🙂
I'm doing everything he's doing but I can't select the edges on the UV unwrapping part what the balls man!
AP, I love your tutorial presentation with all your funny remarks throughout. I am a former pilot and I can help you with some of the nomenclature of the plane's parts.
The leading edge of the wing is where the deicing material is located on the slats surface which can be deployed to increase lift.
The engines are held in place by wing pods and covered with nacelles.
The tail has two parts vertical stabilizer where the rudder is located and a horizontal stabilizer where the elevators are located.
The tip of the wing is the winglet use to decrease drag.
The top of the wings where you see lines are the spoilers, flaps, and ailerons that are deployed in flight as needed.
The turbofan engine nacelles cover the fan at the front which allows cooler air to flow over the hot engine section to reduce noise and increase thrust with the same amount of fuel.
I hope this info will help in your next aircraft tutorial. You have a great sense of humor which makes the tutorial fun to watch!!!!!!
alfonso
I know it defeats the porpoise of the tutorials, but could you put the rig up for download please?
You sir, have a special place in my heart 😀
The silver on the engine cowling is likely to help with de-iceing
Like like
does this work on 2.49b i dont know how to use the newest version of blender but im good with 2.49b
Try the addon "Uv Squares", it works like a charm ^^ and thanks for your videos! =]
The first part was nice – for the second I first have to buy and install Microschrott Windoof and borrow some Photoshops too. ^^ Will be in the next 50 years or so …
the Wing connectors are called Pylons Andrew.
