For all you aviation history buffs out there I think your going to love this movie coming out about the Red Baron. There is plenty of scenes that are obviously involving 3d animation. Check out the trailer: http://www.apple.com/trailers/independent/theredbaron/

Barracks interior update

Recently uploaded rendering of interior Morrison Field barracks 1942

A “work in progress” I uploaded a image of the interior of a typical barracks layout at Morrison field in 19 42. Most of this image is based on several photos I studied showing interior views of similar type of building structures. I will be adding more details in the future including clothing hangers, detailed foot lockers, books and other misc details. Anyone out there who can give me information regarding the interior of these type of army barracks in the 1940’s (such as plans or photos) would be greatly appreciated. Critical feedback would be appreciated also.

Homebuilders are using ‘3d modeling” and virtual “walk-thrus” to increase sales and cut costs.

PRWEB sites that “Today’s struggling economy is driving the use of innovative technologies in new home sales and marketing. A growing trend is the use of Virtual Model Home Tours to replace the use of expensive model home complexes in communities across America….. These highly-detailed 3D videos create the spatial experience of walking through a model home and visualizing every detail, before the home is even built. Though the price to create these tours is far less than their physical counterpart, high quality tours can easily cost $10,000 or more”

“Its beginning to look a lot like Christmas”

(Not really) I reside in Florida, but getting in the spirit of Christmas I wish all the readers of my blog a merry Christmas. I uploaded a Christmas themed 3d illustration, enjoy…..

Merry Christmas

3d rendering of base headquarters Morrison Field (World War II) late 1941, early 1942

I have uploaded another image of Morrison Field showing the base headquarters on what it must have looked like in the early morning hours of late 1941.
Today is Dec 6th, tomorrow is Dec 7th the 68th aniversary of Pearl Harbor. Looking at this image depicting an air base in the states I wonder how life changed on bases such as these in the hours between December 6th and Dec 8th 1941.

A New Post showing the World War II air base: Morrison Field

Its been a while since I posted a image dealing with Morrison Field. This new snap shots shows some barracks with the water tower in the background. THe picture also shows what must have been a fairly common site in 1942: a Curtiss P-40 taking of for a training flight.

More ‘life’ added to the Boeing rendering

The latest improvement to the Boeing rendering I added a few more elements to add a little life to the picture. I added a couple of step ladders as well as a ground crew shown doing some maintenance work on the aircraft. I also changed the lighting somewhat as well as changing the atmosphere of the sky. The purpose of the additions was to add some life and character to the image. My goal with this image is to show the “Golden Age” of aviation where the times were simpler and may be a bit more peaceful.
