Finished modelling the gauge now this is the rear view, and yes the label is the right way up

Started on the modelling of the fuel gauge:

Started a new project, another aircraft dial. These things are fun to model but this one is nearly all hand painted so a lot of vector curve work for the gauge. And yes it is that wonky the painter must have had a long day...

Calling this one now, I have messed about for far too long on the textures to the point I can't stand looking at it any more.
I will do more render views later but this is the hero shot and the one that reflects the main reference I had.

Vector work done for the dial, a little longer on this as the original contained a fair bit of hand written lettering. Also an obscure font that needed tweaking.

A new model underway, another dial from an old aeroplane, this time from this side of the Atlantic. More to follow as I progress.

Calling this one done!
I could fiddle around with the textures for ever, but enough is enough.

Almost done, I need to mess the glass up and dial up the dirt on the dial.

A little update to the model, next some glass and wear and tear:

Playing with cylindrical shapes in Blender, non-destructive workflow with ND. Another hard surface doodle done.
Started a new project, an old cockpit oil gauge I found online. I will post more as I progress.

Improved a bit cylindrical hard surface doodle from a week ago. Still not used to how Space Mouse is handled in Blender 4.5 tho...
Another quick hard surface doodle.
Thick Stick:
Little controller doodle thing.

Venting!
Wood and bits in a metal model.

Another hard surface doodle done. Going even more spherical ^^
Great thing about going addon-light is the fact that I can easily update blender without anything breaking.
Current set of addons: ND, univ, uvpackmaster3.
Video: cylindrical hard surface doodle made quickly in Blender 4.5 to test if anything broke.

Slightly different angle of the machine part above:

Little bendy stretchy model thing.
