In an alternate reality where the cold war didn't end, the Swedish Airforce is forced to patrol its borders to maintain it's sovereignty.

Just some quick shots while I am working on the textures of my Phantom II Jolly Rogers

Very moody I've sat in a Gripen cockpit they are tiny little aircraft. But for Swedish metal you can't beat a Viggen

Too bad they are all so expensive to run, they are all some of the best airframes out there!

nice to see some swedish stuff shame that thing has a tendancy of chrashing and that it is 10 times as expensive to maintain compared to an F/A 18... tech isnt bad tho just a damned shame that the design of the "griffon is soo "saab" = Ugly imo

image looks nice and clean however the shadows are to dark and thus the lighting is a bit off also id incorporate some kind of moblur bokeh or DOF to increase the realism.'

overall good job!

Well there are plug-ins and add-ons to load .dae files to .obj. in Lightwave. I use blender because it's what I know. I downloaded Google sketchup, because some of the models aren't already .dae, but Sketchup has an exporter. Not all but some are already .dae. Also sometimes the UV's are all wonky, it's sometimes a crapshoot.

Sorry for the incoherence of the last post! I had just gotten up, but my brain obviously hadn't! I think you could get the gist...

These were Google warehouse meshes. They are sometimes .dae files (usually the later ones), but mostly just sketchup. So I dl'd Sketchup because it has an exporter, but it only exports to .dae.
Lightwave on the other hand has can import .dae sometimes. But the UV's can get all wonky. there are Add-on's and plug-in's for lightwave for this, but I use Blender (because that is what I know). And STILL it's sometimes a crapshoot.

Hope that clears up any wonkiness on my part!

If it helps any the yellowy lightish thingy in the right lower corner is a ground explosion. There were going to be two images with this one, but i couldn't get the angles in layout that I wanted.
