I reccoment that you start to play around with the existing models, to learn the ropes before you create your own stuff. Most people get pi$$ed off, when they try to start with an model in the 5k polygon-range. Keep it plain and simple for start and advance to more complex models with increasing skill. There are some good tutorials around, read them all and don't hesitate to ask on the forum.

Warning: This stuff can tripple your coffee-consumption and cause serious side-effects like insomnia and chain-smoking (trust me, I know it. )

Hi Spike, any new screenshots for us?

It's really BORING and DISTRESSING to wait ANOTHER 3-4 weeks.

[Spike]

Want some screenshots, eh?

Have been puzzling with some of the OPFOR AAM's.

How about those?

totally new build right? i note those fins got thickness... EXCLLENT JOB!

time to upgrade oudated lods!

wait, you miss two missiles which badly need a facelift-- AA-7A/B!

[Spike]

Glad you like them. The best feature is'nt visible though. The engine exhausts of the AA-10 and 12 are covered prior to launch and then... Yea, the AA-7 really needs an facelift, it's on my list.

oh no... you add a switch poly on nozzle? too detailed, that's crazy detailing!!

well, i'd rather you spend more time on complex projects

Dont worry, I just needed a little rest from the Mig-31. Weapon modelling can be sooo relaxing
