He is listed under "the hankster", you need to have "the"

Monsoon, Going to get your SeaVue (Will I need the other one too (Can't remamber it's name) The first ofthe month. I have a question. I love Egypyology (I was probably the only 6th grader in 1958 that tried to learn heiroglyphics!) I'dd like a true Egyptian boat - any - but especially the kind you see on the Nile (ancient and/or modern) Is there a mmodel you know of orreally good reference I could model from? Jim

I saw a dhow type of boat here in forester's store. And no, you don't need the other one....although there are plenty of extra objects in there if you so choose.

Thanks I'd seen that one also. Hehe - guess it's time to do some serious research and practice my miserable modeliing skills. I have several High-e4nd modelers - Just not good at it.

I like that - think I'll get it next week. (Check coming on Thurs ;) - Maybe the Dhow too. Still there is a very small boat used (I think) - smaller then the dhow - I one offset sail and totally open. maybe I dis-remember. Probably MIGHT be able to do in Rhino with splines/NURBS and convert to polys then into C4D/BodyPaint 2 after some resewarch on woods used. Texturing is FUN to me and have tons of large photos to help. Looks like that barge will need a paint-job too! 100 Yrs of National Geographic CD's might help with that. I syuspect it was encrusted with heiroglyphs. Jim (Thanks for hunting)

Hi JJ54. I think you might be talking about the type of boat called a falucca. I was planning on building one of those next. I probably could build a rough start for you, post it, and then you could finish it using your modeller, if you'd like to try that. (No charge, if this is not clear.) Do you want to try?

Sure if you don't mind a poor modeler mutilating it :) My personal e-mail is: ulzanadesigns@ulzanadesigns.com Thanks Jim
