Another civil service exam and new updates for: Tiger I and Panzer I - May 21, 2022
Hello everyone. It's me Antony, back with another blog in 2022. Now that I'm working and studying, my time for Blogs decreased to some occasions and some weekends. I'm not sure what the future holds after my work at the public health center ends in August of this year. But one thing is certain: Until they call me effectively, I need to dedicate a good part of my time to the next civil service exams.
For the next days, I'll been studying for an upcoming civil service exam that will be applied in July 3rd. This one is for the education department - precisely for school archive clerk. Fortunately I made my registration on April 25th - with the deadline for May 30th. Now the only thing to do is getting the material for study.
The exam I performed on the 8th of May had a considerable grade, but I really wished I could be better. I was qualified in the 33rd position. Not a best position due to the questions of the specific subject - being a bit silly and I didn't study what the edict asked for. Still, some of my colleagues at the public health center told me some people that got a better position might give up due to the work schedule, the salary and the distance in case some people live far from where I live. Until they call me, the only thing to rely on is the upcoming civil service exam for school archive clerk.
Enough of that, let's go to the Blog. For today, I'm going to show you what I did on the German Tiger I and the Panzerkampfwagen I Ausf A.
Panzer VI Ausf. E Tiger I:
The Tiger I received some changes after my last Blog. The new components were the access hatches on the turret, a commander sights on the turret, some cables on the chassis (no idea what exactly its function), a small adjustment on the driver sights and the rear storage box section of the turret (nicknamed Rommelkiste - Rommel's box). It's looking interesting.
Just the rear section of the storage box looks a bit sharp due to excessive subdivisions. I may attend it in order to correct it.
The next components are the other wires, some grids for the Maybach engine cooling compartment, a rework on the commander main hatch, another adjustment on the gun mantlet, the coaxial MG 34 on the chassis and gun mantlet and a mounted MG 42 on the turret, a rework on the tracks and wheels and other components.
The Panzer I received a rework on its turret. I tried to remake it based on the blueprints I searched on Google and downloaded it. As you can see, there's some straight plates instead of a curved one.
I shall use the new model since it follows the original photos and blueprints.
And now the last renders of the Panzer I.
I added more locks for the engine compartment hatches, the turret and the sights surrounding the chassis. The decal located on the engine housing has been placed on a 'shield' in between the two exhaustion outlets. So far, it's looking good.
The next thing to do is the rework on the gun mantlet, the tracks, the hatches for the engine, some adjustments on the chassis, more components, a nice texture and rigging it.
Before concluding this Blog, there's one last thing to show you. I cloned the Tiger I while I was working for another 'For Fun time'. While I was doing that, my brother suggested me to include some planes to follow these two mighty Panzer. Then I brought the Bf 109 E series along the Stuka. I had the idea of including the Panzer I and the Kübelwagen, but, in order to avoid overloading the capacity to render too much elements, I decided to leave it for another time, plus the Panzer I needs adjustments before I can make it official. Also, I don't have any adversary for these German attack force - instead, the German strike is moving towards enemy lines, like in the original stories surrounding the German Blitzkrieg.
Looks amazing, huh? I selected the first render to make a montage with Gimp 2.
Here's the montage I made. I uploaded it on my DeviantArt in case you are interested.
Amazing. I added some smokes, some tank shell coming out from the dreadful 88 mm KwK cannon, some dust coming from the tracks and a nice sky. I wonder what it would look like when I animate these German war machines and share you via YouTube. That would be awesome. I know some of the battles the Tiger fought WW2 were in Kursk, Tunisia, Italy, Normandy, Bastogne and Germany.
I shall work on the other projects after the civil service exams. I'm not sure when I plan to resume my Avro Lancaster series, but I know I have other plans for upcoming videos on TonyAnima Projects.
Well, that's it for now my friends. I hope you enjoy this Blog. In case I have some spare time to enjoy, I'll be working on other things aside from Blender projects and my personal things. Until the time comes, you will be surprised to see them. See you next time.
