Description
Here's the new model. I wanted to rig this in Carrara so that the 6 lamps can be moved realistically (two angles of rotation each). That then progressed to the arm. Which has 9 parts and EIGHT joints, including the fingers which close and open. Bit of a learning curve there since I don't normally rig my models. Both thrusters also pivot and the propellers rotate too.
The body of the sub needs work and I've not started on the interior yet.
So this is a test render to show you how it's coming along.
Here's a short animation of the arm in action

Great model and wonderful light set I can visualize the rigged version you would like. I would like to get the model after it has been rigged and be able to use the pyro plugin to control those lights via midi controllers!
