New updates for: A6M 'Zero' - December 11, 2022

Hello everyone. It's me Antony, back with another blog in 2022.

December arrived and the year is close to the end, same goes for my job contract at the public health center - scheduled to end on December 31, 2022. Yet, December 31 is a Saturday, so I will work until December 30 since the weekends and holidays weren't included in my timesheet. Still, I guess I'll have to go after another civil service exam while I wait for the call for the selection process for attendant.

For this month, my university semester has been concluded - allowing me to rest while my addition to my service at the public health center is still in course. And again, Warframe introduced the new Nightwave intermission chapter (Oh God, not again). Fortunately, my work schedule was modified in mid-November due to the vacation of one of the attendants and the transfer of another to the warehouse sector after the employee in that area had been approved in a civil service exam. The new working hours will be permanent until the end of my contract.

Alright. With nothing else to add, let's go for the Blog. For today, I'm going to bring new images of the Mitsubishi A6M2 'Zero' Model 21. I finally concluded it yesterday. Let me show you what I did.










Alright. What I did was: I painted some blue stripes around the Zero's fuselage and rudders. As far I recently learned, the two blue stripes represented the planes transported by the Hiryū carrier. There are other different stripe colors to represent other Japanese carriers like Akagi and Kaga (the ones I'm familiar after Kantai Collection or Kancolle and Azur Lane - manga / anime series of humanized WW2 warships); one with one red stripe, one or two white stripes, two red stripes and a yellow stripe at the rudder and more.

In addition, I painted a red square at the wings, the smoke coming out from the engine outlets on the wings, the yellow stripes from the forward section of the wings and some stripes located on the fairings. Unless I would include the texture for the instrument panel, the serial number and letters, this Japanese air fighter is now complete. I may plan to include the lines for the metal sheet spacing, but I'm going to do that in the future.

In the meantime, I rendered some images of the A6M2 flying. Have fun.






Amazing. Don't you agree? Although I'm not Japanese, I always find this aircraft one of the most gracious and one of the symbols of once a great nation formed by the samurai - bound by honor and the sword.

And to conclude this section, here's another section of renders of the A6M2 'Zero'.






I duplicated the main collection to have a second Zero plane. This one is going to be the wingman for the main aircraft. Also, I duplicated the propeller blades for the high-speed version during flight and dogfight - like I did for the P-38 Lightning. I'll do the same for the other piston-engine aircraft.

After these renders, I picked up the first image to make a montage on Gimp 2. It's available at my Instagram, Facebook page and ArtStation.

I imagine the idea behind this scene probably was the Japanese patrolling over the conquered territory on the Pacific. In the future, I'll include the American P-40 Warhawk, P-51D Mustang, P-47 Thunderbolt or the P-38 Lightning for some dogfight until I start the Grumman F4F Wildcat, Grumman F6F Hellcat, Douglas SBD Dauntless and the Vought F4U Corsair.

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.

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. First of all, I would like to inform you that I returned to work at the public health center in the city where I live. Yup, I'm back on duty after a long time of waiting. In case you follow me on DeviantArt, you are aware the reason for my return. In case not, I'll leave the link to my recent journal there. Job and Lowering my personal works... again (Upd): https://www.deviantart.com/tonytoriusimages/journal/Job-and-Lowering-my-personal-works-again-Upd-875311216 I still can't believe it because they gave me a very tight working schedule even if it is to cover the absence of others at lunch, like - working at 05:00 to 07:00, then at 11:00 to 14:00 and 18:00 to 21:00? It's a pretty tiresome trip. Fortunately I have the weekends and holidays to rest, study and working in my projects. However, I have a ...

New Updates for: Macchi C.202 and Macchi C.205 (new project) - October 11, 2021

Hello everyone. It's me Antony, back with another Blog. We are now on October 11 - approaching the end of 2021; hoping for the things to get better as the World continues in this fight for survival and to develop a (possible) cure for the COVID-19 pandemic. For this month, my university semester is in course - in which my attention will have to be re-directed to the new tasks, in addition to my service at the public health center. Fortunately I concluded the tasks to reach level 30 in the new Nightwave chapter, which makes things easier for me now that I don't have to go for the prizes. Now for this Blog. I'm going to show you the new adjustments of the Italian Macchi C.202 Folgore. Let me show you what I did so far. The Folgore received a new Armature after I appended from the P-51 Mustang project - with some slight alterations in the rotation for the landing gear and canopy hatch bones; aside from adding more bones for the links. Now it's looking good. I struggled to ...

New updates for: Horten Ho 229 and F6F Hellcat (new project) - March 22, 2024

Hello everyone. It's me Antony, back with another Blog in 2024. I'm still working as a receptionist at the public health center where I live and my 7th semester is still ongoing. That means, my time for Blogs decreased to some occasions. The town hall is calling the candidates from the civil service exam. They called the first two approved candidates for the receptionist vacancy, with the first one accepting it. The nurse and the archive officer is still going, the fourth candidate for ambulance driver on duty accepted the vacancy while the three other candidates didn't take it as they are working for other town halls. I'm still I'm waiting to be called to work as a community health agent or as a receptionist. Unless the second candidate accept the vacancy, I'll have to wait a little more. There's a chance they might call me after they inaugurate the new public health center, dedicated for specialized doctors (pediatrics, cardiologist, ginecologist, physioth...
