My moms boyfriend was a mech troopie and he told me a funny story the other day of a guy who fractured his skull when he tried to rambo kick the doors open, unfortunately the doors are spring mounted so if you kick only one door open itll swing back and as he was jumping out the door basically b*tch slapped him back inside

2019-10-17 23:34:34 UTC  

Haha damn he must have had a pretty bad day!

2019-10-17 23:35:08 UTC  

Indeed

Is the bonnet of the Samil Kwevoel just that mesh with a frame?

Don't tell me I have to model the bloody engine too 😰

i dont know if it is you need.....it is forum of war of angola war

2019-10-22 22:11:01 UTC  

Ja can't really see the bonnet whether it's possible to see the engine through it. I hope not as I'd like to avoid modeling the engine. But if it is visible then I have no choice. In the meantime I'm modeling the soft skinned variant

2019-10-22 22:11:32 UTC  

Will model the armoured cab as well but not just yet. Just need to get the frame of the vehicle right before I do the armoured cab.

2019-10-22 22:12:09 UTC  

Quite boxy at the moment. The edges will be rounded off soon

2019-10-22 22:17:16 UTC  

ill check if i cant find any info

2019-10-22 22:17:40 UTC  

Alright lekker

2019-10-22 22:18:27 UTC  

okay good news you dont have to model the engine

2019-10-22 22:18:43 UTC  

since the radiator is behind the mesh you cant see the engine

2019-10-22 22:19:00 UTC  

Fantastic 😉

2019-10-22 22:26:15 UTC  

I have it

2019-10-22 22:26:20 UTC  

ok

2019-10-22 22:28:39 UTC  

I think in the images there were the two versions of bonnet ... but this is something difficult to distinguish

2019-10-22 22:28:58 UTC  

Possibly

2019-10-22 22:47:53 UTC  

there are two versions

2019-10-22 22:48:16 UTC  

one with the mesh and one with slats like a ww2 halftrack almost

2019-10-22 22:50:19 UTC  

Got the windscreen rounded. Now to get the rest of the cabin is a bit tricky. Curved surfaces are so much harder to do than boxy straight edges like the armoured cab variant. That'll actually be easier to model.
