Nice job Kreator, Looks really impressive.
I bet a few fingers were lost operating the real thing.

[Blick Fang]

kreator, you are modelling the flak cannon in Anim8or?

[kreator]

CrashDrive:Thanks my friend, hopefully we can get the other numerous projects I have ongoing sorted as well!!


Blick Fang: Yep, all done with anim8or ... there is one on Renderosity as well as a Pak 40 Cannon but I feel its better to create your own work then there is the sense that you have achieved something. I have got ref pictures mainly from one source, so some of it may be not quite authentic, though I`m not really worried as you most probably won`t see it all when its in place!!  

[Deepthought]

where'd you get the refs from? I could only find a couple of blurry photos when i tried to model a bofors gun

[kreator]

Google is your friend, for reference images I just typed in Bofors Gun and theres loads...

Updates to this animation sequence....Outboard and inboard views of the Mitchell in flight

As this whole animation is roughly based on the Ploesti Raids "Operation Tidalwave" I thought it would be cool to have some opposition to the the bombing of this oil field aerially, Based on the info the Romanian Airforce put up their IAR_80s in defence, so I have been working today (07 Sept 2013) on the Airframe which is now complete and ready for animating
