Hello everyone. It's me Antony, back with another Blog during this quarantine phase while the World makes their best to find a (possible) cure for the COVID-19 pandemic. And nothing like a good Blog to entertain you. For this Blog, I'll be showing new renders of the American B-17G Flying Fortress. After the last Blog, I made the cabin from where the pilot and co-pilot are located in the aircraft. Along it, I included the top-turret and made small adjustments on the tail-turret, propellers and the glass from where the bomb operator and front gunner are located. So far, it's looking good. And now for the renders with the decals. It gave me some trouble to adjust at a good position on the fuselage. Okay, it's looking amazing with the American Roundels, but there are others aside from the main ones. When I can, I plan to make more decals for the B-17. Do I plan to make those aircraft nose arts - like from those painted on the rea

Hello everyone. It's me Antony, back with another Blog during this quarantine phase while the World makes their best to find a (possible) cure for the COVID-19 pandemic. And nothing like a good Blog to entertain you. For this Blog, I recently uploaded a new video for TonyAnima Projects' YouTube channel, continuing the Messerschmitt Bf 109 E project on Blender. In the video, I decided to make a tutorial in how to rig an aircraft while taking advantage of the occasion to conclude the project as soon as possible. Though I didn't advanced in video to fix the bones and its alignment on the Bf 109 components, and making the animations for landing, lift off, hatch closing / opening, propeller spinning, flying, on land and pose neutral. For that, I'll show you in renders the final results. Looking good, huh? I finally made the textures for the wings, fuselage and elevator - based on some pictures of the Bf 109 'Emil' E-4. Although the t

Hello everyone. It's me Antony, back with another Blog during this quarantine phase while the World makes their best to find a (possible) cure for the COVID-19 pandemic. And nothing like a good Blog to entertain you. For this Blog, I'm going to show a new project I started recently - focused on WW2 aircraft. The aircraft of choice is the American Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress. In case you don't know what it is, the B-17 is the famous heavy bomber developed and built by Boeing Company (though other companies received orders to built American aircraft to increase production and avoid losing time with that specific company, like Lockheed, Douglas, Martin and Bell. For the B-17, Lockheed and Douglas helped Boeing by the shared orders to build more units for the U.S.A.F - United States Air Force). It received the nickname Flying Fortress due to its incredible toughness and for some bombers returning from their mission with a lot of scratches, bullet holes, some parts missing

Hello everyone. It's me Antony, back with another Blog during this quarantine phase while the World makes their best to find a (possible) cure for the COVID-19 pandemic. And nothing like a good Blog to entertain you. For this Blog, I recently uploaded a new video for TonyAnima Projects' YouTube channel, continuing the Messerschmitt Bf 109 E project on Blender. In the video, I decided to make some adjustments on the radiators down the wings, more components on the fuselage, the flaps and navigation lights by separating from the wings, the remake of the landing gears (the fairings will be made after the rigging procedures) and cockpits components like the reflector gunsight and the seat. One thing to emphasize in this Blog is: I made this video with recorded parts from two following days. The first one looked a little short in case I speed it up for the time-lapse. Then I decided to record more to complete the full video. Currently it's looking good. For
