At long last, Blue Thunder is available as a 3-D mesh. This may well be the ONLY one on the Internet. :) (I looked at all the usual places for a model to use as a reference, but I found nothing... not even a helicopter that was close to the same shape. The only search results were for the movie or for r/c helicopters.) This model has been "optimized" for use in Poser and includes the usual features:
- rotating blades
- rotating microphones
- opening door
- finished cockpit
- gun turret can rotate, move up and down, and the barrel can rotate
- for added convenience, all "movement" controls are parameter dials on the body
- exterior coloring is built into the mesh and is not a texture map
- interior detailing does use texture maps (such as the display screen and instrument panels)- feel free to make your own
- And of course, it's scaled to the Poser people The model looks great when rendered in P5 with motion blur turned on. Hint: you have to set up an animation so the blades will be blurred when you render your image. Please note that this item is available only to members of Vanishing Point.
