Here's an update of Professor X. The mouth/chin area isn't quite right yet as well as some other areas but maybe I'm being too much of a profectionist right now.
Don't be satisfied with what you can do but rather strive to do the things you can't do!

Try bringing in more photos from differant angles, saying that I need to do that with mine. When you start texturing that will bring out a lot of the detail.........dave

here is a update/beginning. started doing the body of the x-jet. missing 4 of the wings yet. and looking at the x-jet - lol about hard surface modeling - the only hard faces i see on the x-jet might be the lines around cockpit. unless all non-organic is considered hard surface - not sure.
crits welcome - don't be too harsh - its my first model in years ....
duckie
p.s.: call me duckie - i prefer that over BabyDuck
p.p.s.: how do i insert a picture instead of the small thumbnail with the big preview thumbnail like all the other posts?

to insert pic....when you 'post reply' underneath you will see 'manage attachments' click on there and you can upload up to 5 images.
Looks ok for some one who hasnt ridden the Maya bike for a while!!
