I purchased Bazze's Mig21, then went out searching for references on the Aircraft. I found a Model Mag that shown a German Mig21, named "Sukhoi's Swinger; Sukhoi Su-22M-4". Later, I searched on net for this type of aircraft on the net. I wasn't able to find anything close, or at all titled "The Swinger". I am not a Mig-21 person. I do not find the design and engineering worth looking at. But the Swinger sure got my attention on a Mig21 project. I was very interested on giving this aircraft a lift for poser and for others who are deeply interested. Did a lot of reading about the aircraft. Still lot to learn. But from all that. I did work on the "Swinger" (So called) in poser for the past 2 weeks (off and on). I am having problems with the contour lining (if that is what it is called) on the aircraft. The bump mapping. How does it appear? To deep, the color is strong? I am new to this technique on aircrafts (working on a F14 as well), and I seem to have problems with this. Any tips are very welcomed. Still working on the texture (Wheels and such).

Also this will be a freebie along with the bombs I made to go with it when done. I now have a site for uploading files. :smiles:

I didn't know that Sukhoi built MiGs, but, given the peculiar (and not wildly successful) way in which the Soviet economy "worked", it's not implausible.

Robo2010, Bazze may well have the information you need.   He is obviously contactable through Renderosity, or through his website, www.colacola.se

SU-22 and MiG-21 are not the same, though the shape is roughly similar. the NATO code name for SU-22 is/was "fitter". the M4 version features variable (swinging) wings. just repainting a MiG-21 does not make a SU-22, the same way as you cannot paint a chevy into a caddy.

by the way, just a little research in the net would have told you this.

Yes, you are correct. I didn't even know. I knew their was some differences due to the canopy and other areas of the plane. I knew that what I was getting into (project), that the painting and some things will be off. Just like the F-14. Their is even a 3 seater F-14.  I was very impressed on the "Sukhoi Su-22 *Fitter" (Swinger*). That I wanted to give that life to the mig-21 in poser.  The more I worked on this, the more I become to understand the 2. They looked so alike, I didn't even know. But, hey!..Came close.

I will just work on the texture, and when done, it will be available in the next few days.

Oh, here is an image of the Swinger from the cover of the mag. And a link of the magazine.

Ok, trying to save the textured aircraft in the pose directory. Having problems. Please anyone.

If you have P6 or above, goto the Material room and save a Material Collection with all materials.
If you have P5 or below, goto the Figure library and save, you can then make a MAT pose out of the new CR2 (you can take this route for P6 and above if you want, but material collections are easier to convert to MAT poses if this is required).

I have the texture setup in the material room, so I do not have to go looking for files, and reset everything. I do have some other part of the mesh invisible. So when people in the pose directory do not have to do the work of unchecking and going into the material room to do all the work. Trying to have everything done in one button, but I am having problems. I would enjoy having a CR2 file, but I do not think the creator would like that, due to this is a purchased product.

Thats ok.. I decided to make a zip file. So it will be available soon.

And what you find on the internet is so reliable.
