![]() As A huge fan of the 1920s and 30s This was a must build for me. I started with the Wright Whirlwind radial and went from there. There was so much wonderful history with this beautiful little racer that I was thrilled i could recreat it for Second Life. There was one builder in Second Life that had built her already but I felt with AC3D i could do a more detailed aircraft. If you ever get time do a google search and read the story behind this awesome machine. As with my other builds you can come see in Second Life or even buy one of your own to fly around. Hope every likes. also I did give her an updated look with a three bladed prop and new spinner as well as a optional closed canopy. Clay Ellison |

Very impressive Clay!
When you export from AC3D into Second Life, are you using Collada or sculpties, or a combination of the two? |

![]() A couple other pictures.In the picutre with the plane on the grass shows the little tweeks i went back and did from the earlier ones. I made the body and the engine cowling closer in size and redid the wheel boots. The AC3D pictures were taken near the begining of the build. The seimi transperent photo you can see all the wing spars and i even did part of the fuselage wooden frame parts for more added detail. |

Thank you for the great compliment. I have done some sculpting and model building and the one thing I love is detail. Now that I can use mesh in Second Life I can now add greater detail. So many builder in second life are out for the quick buck and there work lacks detail. So strive to have greater detail on what I build and model.
