What's left to do, Jake?

Looking good!!
Can't wait to see it sitting on the KNHZ ramp!

How should I know??What's left to do, Jake?
No seriously, I've been trying to put a texture map together and I'm trying to start the LOD's, but like I was telling somebody, every individual example of this aircraft is different from the next one
so I've got to find a happy medium with antennae, sensors, etc and just leave it alone, at least for the primary model. I don't see how Kev has kept his sanity with all the variations he's done on the Talon.I could really use some help on that before mentioned decision, though.

If I understand you correctly, your trying to figure out how much detail to put on each LOD so you can say time and effort when you start on the other P-3 models?aerogator wrote:How should I know??What's left to do, Jake?

Yeah, something like that. I've just got come up with a variation that is generic enough to represent a P-3C UIII and/or a P-3C AIP. Jeff Frey sent me some good info on all of this a while back but if you have any suggestions, I'd appreciate them.your trying to figure out how much detail to put on each LOD so you can say time and effort when you start on the other P-3 models?

Keeping in mind I have no modeling experience, I would think LOD 2 thru ? could be the same with the exception of the VQ aircraft. Tacan, VHF/ UHF, IFF and the other assorted antennas are too small to be seen at any great distance. Depending on the mod the SATCOM antennas are placed differently, but I think modeling them on LOD 2 and higher would add very little. Naturally, this is just my opinion and I would like to know what others think.aerogator wrote:Yeah, something like that.

OK guys, with all the talk about subs and ASW, I thought I'd throw in my 2 cents worth. Graham has begun helping with the P-3 
. He has given me a list of things that need to be done and I am getting busy. I am posting a picture of an early paint. As you can see, Graham can even work his majic on a less than perfect model. We're getting there, however.
A big thanks to Graham for his help and patience!

Any chance that once that beautiful P-3 is done we could get a CP-140 Aurora variation for those of us flying "north of the border"? CFB Comox and CFB Greenwood could really use some life. Vern Opperman has a great Comox scenery at Avsim that could benefit... Just my 2 cents worth.

Similar to this?

Here's a pic of Graham's latest majic. Just to let y'all know that the P-3 is still progressing. Check his website for more examples.

Me thinks that one the Exotic Herks packages are finished, there will be an Exotic Orion collection.

Steve
The Exotic Alberts package will never be finished, just too many to do.
Stew and I are thinking of doing Latin American Herks next, then Middle East and finally Europe/Africa...
Not sure if we will...

Barry,
Guess the two series will have to run in parallel then.

They look great! One note, P-3C's have a VHF antenna on top of the tail cap which I don't see.

. Can you send me a pic of the antenna? Shouldn't be a problem including it. Thanks
