Hello. I have been working like crazy to get stuff done for my demo reel. I was up all day and night yesterday, and I have been working on this since, and its 5:00pm. I think I am almost done. This still needs tons of texturing to be correct, but I am more concerned with the animation for my demo reel. So. What do you think?? Good enough for the gallery? If you can't tell, it is supposed to be the Blue angels. THanks,
Brian

Its going to be a while b4 I am going to be able to post a pic of the jets with a background. i am working on the Animation right now. THey come into formation, and then Do a barrel roll together, its kinda cool because they all say USNAVY on the bottom side of their wings. Well, i will try to post an image with a background within the week. I will also post a playblast of the avi, when it is ready to render. Thanks alot!

Nice catch. I am going to use the same piolts that I had in the F15, just change the color of their flight suits and their helmets, and I think it will look ok. THanks,

I totally redid the textures, only one left, witch is the stripe down the middle.. What do you think?? I also added a Pilot, but you obviously can't see him in this pic. I will post another image in about an hour, I am on my way to my GF's house for a break. Please let me know what you think. THanks,

BTW they all say the #4 right now, just because I copied the plane 3 times just for the image, changing the #'s will be really easy. THanks,
