[WIP]YF-12A Interceptor

The SR-71 is cool and all... But don't you sometimes wish it had weapons? Well, the YF-12A is a lesser known sibling of the SR-71 (or pretty much it's predecessor) able to carry AIM-47 missiles in internal weapon bays. It never made it past the prototype stage. The *most* visible changes to the exterior are 4 bottom bays with weapon and electronic equipment, a chin nose instead of the round and smooth SR-71 nose, a fin on the bottom of each engine and a centerline bottom fin which would retract with the gear due to its size.

Current progress:
Front weapon bays next to front gear done
Fins on engines done
Chin nose done

Left to do:
Centerline fin
Rear weapon bays
New skin/markings

[WIP]SR-71A Blackbird progress

To get a little live in the blog again, here is an update on the SR-71A:

Completely new nozzles. The Black Ops model (base model of this mod) lacked any distinctive nozzle whatsoever and that bugged me so much that I went ahead and created a new one. In the background you can see how it looked like before.

Additionally I have added some high resolution markings to the aircraft. Here you can see the rudder markins and in the background simple "NO STEP" markings on the fuselage

Ingame screenshots with afterburner (working for add-on version)

What will I add/improve?

Well, for one the engine inlets... On pretty much EVERY picture of the SR-71 you can see them open (they are in front of the nozzle). This would need a major remodelling, but I guess I really want to have them open...

A retexture of the gear bays. Right now they're plain black.

Maybe add the photo cameras on the bottom of the aircraft.

Aerial refueling hatch: Really, I don't know how this works. Is it always open or does it have a cover? Bceuase on many pictures and exhibits it is open, but I could swear at least the NASA versions have closed covers...

WIP mod pictures and upcoming mods

I really gotta update here more often. Here are some pictures of mods I am working on... SR-71 Blackbird (started converting), E-2D Hawkeye (exterior converted, need to make a cockpit) and US Army helicopter helmets (AH-64 Apache helmet and MH-60 Black Hawk helmet with mask).

An update of the work I have been doing.

Long time no update and the list of released mods is... low... like... very low. Only the AT-99 has been released recently.

That's because:

a) I had to cut back on time because of my life outside of the modding scene
b) I have been working on the Avatar vehicles pack
c) I have been working on a detailed model of a DDG Arleigh Burke Class Destroyer


Status of b):

The AT-99 has been released as appetizer, but will be remade for the package. A new collision, tweaked materials and better cockpit will be implemented.
The Valkyrie Space Shuttle is still awaiting its cockpit. The HUD with its systems has been finished and shown during the preview video of the Valkyrie.
The SA-2 Samson is finished and comes in two version: One normal SEC-Ops version with missiles, buzzard MG and hook to carry vehicles. The other one is "Rogue One". Special paintscheme of the SA-2 flown by Trudy Chacon (Michelle Rodriguez) in the movie with missiles, Savage MG and no hook.
The Dragon Assault Ship... The model is there, but the cockpit and landing gear are still missing. I also haven't even started to convert that thing.

Status of c):

The model is entirely new and NOT from BF4. It features a bridge with interior and two complete hangars. Model is still in progress to add a CIWS platform and MK-38 weapon stations. A lot of models for this have been donated by the same person who also provides me with textures and lots of background knowledge.
A fitting Seahawk helicopter should be finished soon.

Pictures will follow.
