Question about creating a 3D model of a F-16 Airplane

[steveo]

I am building an application in C++ that will also have openGL inbedded into it to display a F-16's plane movement.
I have been looking everywhere for a tutorial that can help me design a airplane or jet. I have been unsucessful so far.

Is there any such a site or is there a site that has 3Ds Max designs that I can edit to make it look like a f-16.

I hope I'm ot stepping out of line whith these questions, but I need some quidence.

thanks,
sj

Don't know if this will help you much but there is a 3D model of an F-18 aircraft at 3dmodelsharing.com

I think the model is fairly good and might help you get started.

To help you navigate more quickly to the file click on the Free Files button, then select AutoCAD format from the drop down list and click on the letter F to open all files starting with that letter.

rob that was very hlpful and I am definetly on the right direction.

Is there any way I can import that model into 3dsMax so that I can make changes to it such as the turbines and dual fins?

thanks for your help

Sorry steveo. I have never worked with 3dsMax.

Hi, I am a 3D Modeler and the administrator of a website dedicated to 3D Modelers, artists and designers. My website has many free Textures, Models and I am in the process of uploading some tutorials as well.

My first tutorial is how to model an F16 fighter Jet. So if you are interested, come check it out.

Wow, talk about thread necromancy!

I think that we have just witnessed a classic example of a "delayed reaction".

Better late than never?

Only 7-1/2 years late. :lol:

Just don't call him late for supper.

I know I was really really late, but can anyone find a tutorial on how to model an F16 Fighter Jet on the internet? for FREE?

I don't think so....

It was a late night for us too and we were bored. Then you dug up this thread from 7 years ago and we just had to take advantage of the opportunity that was afforded. No offense was meant. I'm sure your fighter tutorial will be a great hit. Thank you for sharing.

[acharyaD]

No offense taken. :) I actually got some good laughs from all the comments made. :P

thank you also for your kind response. :D
