G'day Xenomorph, your work is brilliant
The J, pointed in your direction and said you're the one to ask for help

.
I've only just started doing some civ4 models
http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?p=8281222#post8281222and I can't quite work out how to add damage states, shaders and animations.
Ive read most of the tutorials on the site

crazyeye

but was wondering if you could point me in the direction of a simple do step 1 then do step 2 then do step 3 sort of tutorial.
I normally use wings3d for modelling and photoshop for texturing, The Coyote


pointed in the direction of blender, and I'm trying to learn how to use it. (I made an animated candle last night


- this is going to take some time)
however (

wings3d) - I'm still building USN aircraft at the moment and hope to do an F14 with all bells and whistles and have swept back wings when it is ground attacking and swept forward wings while its in sentry or patrol.
your help would be muchly appreciated
