As Partizanac has wisely suggested I'm going to post all models I create to this thread instead of creating a new thread for each model. This way I can keep everything under one roof and keep people informed of any updates. Probably most of them will be towed artillery pieces of the 20th Century to start off with since they are a little easier for beginners like myself and also because there are still a LOT of artillery pieces of the First and Second World Wars which have not been done, while conversely the variety of ships, tanks and planes seems almost complete by comparison.
Also if anyone has requests for models please post them here. My skills are still limited but I'll do the best I can if the request looks "doable" for me. Right now I am doing most of the more complicated shapes in Google Sketchup and importing them into Bryce as OBJ files via Vue 6 Infinite. I owe Bjornlo bigtime for recommending this method to me.
MODEL UPDATES: First off there has been an update to the Type 96 15cm Japanese Howitzer. The new version has been uploaded and the old version taken down. Looking at pictures of the recoil mechanism on the Type 91 10cm howitzer I saw similarities to the Type 96 and the recoil I had for the 96 looked like it may have been configured a little incorrectly. This is now fixed. The color has also been changed to match the color of the Type 91, which I like better, although, since there are relatively few moving parts to the model it is easy enough to change it to whatever color you wish.
All future modeling projects will be dealt with here.
In the lineup for the near future is a "Schneider" m-907,75mm for Partizanac.
Also a quick run down of what is uploaded so far:
German 105mm le. FH 18 L / 28 Howitzer
DOWNLOAD FH 18 HERE
Japanese Type 96 15cm Howitzer
DOWNLOAD TYPE 96 HERE
Japanese Type 91 10.5cm Howitzer
DOWNLOAD TYPE 91 HERE
Thanks all.
EDIT: Of course everything can also be found here in the "Civ III 3D Models" section of the Downloads Database-as well as some great models and model accessories from other designers on the forum.
