BLOWHARD, Thanks for the feedback, you are absolutely correct with the things you point out, but thats the nature of a WIP. these things are constantly evolving and are easily corrected.
I too am aware of the alterations that need to be made, and have addressed some of them in later versions, the interior shadows never looked completely ok to me either,the same goes for the curve on the door, although too much curve doesn't look right either, I will try and achieve a happy medium. The canopy is now much closer to how I intended now but could probably do with just a little more refinement.
You are right again re the smashbar, it has been pointed out to me a on another forum that they are most likely to have been painted silver, black or intereior green, red was used post war , thats what you get when you use colour images of modern restorations when researching these details, It will certainly be corrected sometime in the future, although I am unsure when that will be, as I have now put the XVI aside for now and started another project(s). (breaking my own golden rule
)
Its funny the you use this image of Temora's XVI too show me the error of my ways, I used the same image to create it, I just chose to ignore the correct colour for the smash bar, even when it was staring me in the face, cos I preferred the look of the red bar.
Keep the feedback coming, what doesn't kill me makes me stronger
