I had this posted in the wrong topic...so I've moved it here. I hope to work on a few more fighters and PFs soon.

Nice 3D models.

Done in Sketchup?

Thanks! I made them in 3DS Max.

Too bad you're not working in SketchUp, because I'd love to have someone who knows what they're doing help me convert my "attack shuttles" from 2D to 3D.

Garth -

I am spooling up a major SFU 3D CAD project, this spring, working in Solidworks. Making my own F-14 and A-10 shuttle minis was one of my priorities - I could probably work yours up in 3D too.

Do them in a way that will "print" into a brass master for minis and we'll talk.

Here's a rough F-15 I finished last night just based on the line art in the Master Starship Book.

Garth-- The attack shuttles look great!

Steve-- Do you need the prototype mini in brass to eventually make the mold?

I will eventually need a brass prototype if we're going to sell minis of any fighter. Talk with me before you spend money creating one.

Will, can Solidworks export to SketchUp??

Probably not natively, but most any CAD package can export and import a STEP file.

Scharwenka,

Thanks for the compliment. You might like these, too:

Not nearly as pretty as your art work, but here's some things I drew in Floor Plan Plus v2.0:

Standard Admin shuttle, Heavy shuttle, F-20 & F-20C Freedom Fighters, Drones types I, III, IV, VI, and ADD dart, Man 6'2" Woman 5'4", F-8 fighter. E2 Hawkeye, E3 Sentry, F-18 Hornet, F8+ Crusader. All of these icon were crated in Floor Plan Plus v2 in exacting detail to match ADB's clipart. Admin shuttle was duplicated from the Franz Joseph Tech Manual in near-perfect detail.
