P51-B 3D Model

E128 - Advanced Engineering Graphics 
Spring 2010 with Professor Lieu




  • Surface Model - Created a 3D surface model of a vintage P-51B Mustang plane in 3D Studio Max. Applied surface material finishes and insignia details created in Photoshop. Rendered a short animation of the plane flying over Berkeley campus. Individual project completed over the course of three weeks.
  • Animation - Used keys and motion controllers to generate the flying path of the plane. Created an illusion of spinning propellers by using a glass disk. Also generated an illusion of a 3D campus by mapping a 2D photo onto the inside surface of a 3D sphere.
