Golden-headed Quetzal WIP![]() HUGE thanks to platypus for sending me his trogon model This is working MUCH better.Skin is a WIP... I have to fix the obvious problems with the wings, etc., etc. Legs aren't skinned yet, belly and body still have blank patches, and the face needs to be cleaned up. These wings are largely put together with random bird parts, and some overlaying layers that I pulled from actual Golden-headed Quetzal references (mostly those fringy yellow-green thingers over the black feathers). Life would be a lot simpler if all bird species had nice, large, hi-def images of their wings (undersides too!), but alas, we must make due. ![]() Going to crawl into bed now. Eyes are tired. Night! |

If you go back a page, you'll see my attempt at making a Golden-headed Quetzal out of the Aves Resplendant Quetzal. It... failed. Hard. Platypus had a Surucua Trogon model queued up and sent it to me in the hopes it would suit my Quetzal better (Quetzals are Trogoniformes).

lol it's 10000x better than anything I can make (which is, admittedly, nothing at this point). I didn't think the model was bad, it just didn't fit the Golden-headed Quetzal at all and I eventually had to give up trying to shoe-horn the skin on the .nif. |

Once I have all of the birds I want to make for this part of MFAS, I may bundle them together for anyone who wants them in a pack. Personally, I like having downloads as individual files so I can swap things in and out of my game folder when I start to get close to the limit of files my computer can handle. If anyone wants to volunteer to help me do that when the time comes (because I HATE coding to begin with lolol), I'd appreciate it. ![]() There's still a lot I want to do for this "pack," including some birds that will need edited or new models. Hopefully in the coming months, I'll figure out how to do that.

Double-post! Golden-headed Quetzal Main Skin (yes, there will be variants, whose project topic do you think this is? lol) ![]() Big thanks to platy for the model (though I need to find out who made the original, if not platy himself, and thank them). Not perfect by a long shot, but the best I can do. I'm planning on a few adult male variants, though according to Wikipedia, females are generally duller. Not sure if I'm going to do anything special for the juveniles, except maybe assign them the same skin as the females. To work!

I followed your project tread for quite a while now without leaving a comment behind. But I felt like must do now! I’m impressed about the fact at what fast pase you produce animals for the game and it seems it doesn’t affect the quality of your projects at all! I can only say well done, and I hope you’ll get the hang of blender anytime soon!

Speaking of fast... Crimson Rosella WIP![]() Credit to DM/Hendrix for the Spix Macaw model. I may try to get the beak scaled down a bit to better suit the Rosella, but I'm pretty happy with this one so far. Still need to do the feet (ugh... least favorite part to skin on birds... so tricksome), fix the back, inside of the mouth, and variants (of course!). Anyway, I was stockpiling reference photos last night at work and thought I might be able to get this one done before getting ready for another 12 hour shift of tracking airplanes. |

Operations control, less ATC, more "JUST FLY THE @#$^%$ AIRPLANE, PRINCESS." Pilots can be divas... like all the time. And sometimes "So... how do we ship 200 White-tailed Deer to Russia?" Turns out, it's in cattle stalls. |

This is working MUCH better.
