VTOL Hovercraft Rig [4K]

[Cube Productions 1.1k]

Ok, so I planned a VTOL rig this week. It was supposed to be like a picture from a magazine called Popular Science, but I winded up getting the designs from the internet.

All built in 2 and a half hours. I know, this is one of my less detailed rigs, but whatever.

 

Three opening doors. Heheh. If you want to fix this strangeness, simply do not open the side doors.

Steering control

 

Also, we'll see an animation for the opening of the cockpit

Dun dun dun. DESIGNER NOTES

DESIGNER NOTES

• I had a hard time modeling the front bits and how the front cockpit is going to open.
• At the 2 hours and a half of time, I was a bit distracted by watching Hitler Rants Parodies on YouTube, that's why it took so long.
• I totally forgot that the whole rotor (not the blade itself, the blade can be fully animated) has to rotate to the back to fly forward, so I added some jet engines at the back.
• And it also looks like my shading blur problem has been fixed randomly

I think the Engine is a little small to fly...

But that is good

The main propellants are the blades on the wings, the back engines are just for steering and going forwards. Besides, dropships aren't made for speed.

I envy you.....

Still....... not much people pays attention to your awesome rigs.

No wonder you don't get much reputation.

 

Welcome to the world of Mine-Imator riggers <----- not to really detailed riggers or really really good riggers
