I should consider the SoloJet model finish. I’m quite happy with it as my first Silo “real job”.
Wonderful tool! Now as I will not have time to model a city background… I’ll have to find a way to present it. A showroom maybe… or is it already used…?:wink:

We still have many many minutes to complete our images…:smiley:

#29

Really Hot. I’d like to order one for my garage. How much ? :slight_smile:

#30

Nice job Richard! Love the typeface on the side also, very much in style.

Eric

#31

I like very very much. I agre with your new front of the solojet.

Congrats !

PD. I happy of encounter to you here too… thk!

#32

very nice design Richard! it you make one I will buy one! :slight_smile: what is the top speed?

#33

Thanks guys you’re a great bunch!
Alonzo, I thought you didn’t drive in the city… Of course “jetting” is better…
Predicted price in 1945 was 5000$ (in 1945, house= 4600$, car= 1100$, salary= 1300$…)

Eric, the typeface is “SF Americana Dreams”

Miguel, I completely remodeled the whole front… I probably have the worse loops ever seen in Silo… You have to start somewhere…!

Loon, I built two but they already sold… Top speed? Stock, 350 Km/h. Modified, supersonic but you are not allowed to go over cities… It is recommended to change the plexiglass windshield to the transparent aluminum one…

#34

Nice Work Rick.

Looks like we definitely have a good race going here between you, Miseka ,yhloon, the Capt’n and Eric.

Cheers,

Mike

Ian, of course…

Sorry guys for the late reply, I had some sleep to catch up with…
For those who participated, you know it’s hard to find time for such challenge so, some nights had to be cut short…

Thanks you all for the nice comments, I really appreciate it.

On a sadder note, may I say I am really disappointed that we got only 4 final entries out of 9 participants. Well I guess the timing was not there, family things and real work took the upper hand.

#43

Excellent work Richard. You always do well in these competion. It’s a full image with a story. Rent a jet. Great use of the geometry by duplicating the vehicle The modeling geometry has great form and appeal.It In some ways I could be more technique detail, to move it away from the fantasy but the fanstasy works too. Maybe tubing at the handle bars but the fins on the jets make up for any loss of detail with very nice rounding. Excellent detail with the use of texture. Signage and logo design is on point, says it all. Great composition. Very Good work.

#44

Thanks Alonzo.

I added a larger version: http://www.rdn.qc.ca/eias/Yesterday_Future-Final-Large.jpg

Every time I learn something new, I grow and it becomes easier and faster to do what I used to do. But the more I know, the better I grasp the magnitude of my ignorance… So, I have to start the whole learning process again to get to the next step… Why is it that I still love doing this…?:hmm:

#45 
You said a mouth full here Richard and very well put. I wish said it. I just learned some new things this morning and what you said expresses exactly how I feel. Humbleness is not only becoming but exalting when ignorance is renewed by the magnitude knowledge. Working in Maya's hypergraph is like a bird's eye view of the whole scene. Hope EIAS rethinks the core like this one day. 

Speaking of learning new things. thanks for posting that "bigger picture".  Your sense of humor "rings" through in that old fashioned phone dial. haha. Great being able to zoom in and see the tiny details.
#46

Great final result Rick. It really is a very fun image with the colors and overall composition.

Nicely done and congrats!!
