Taking to the skies...

kickajet · December 2017

A long time Carrara user, I decided its time to actually share some of my work, from the last nearly 15+ years of 3D work, almost all of which was in Carrara (Started back with v4)...

Other forums I am active on (Just search for me "japme”):

I'm an member of the US military, and most of my 3D work is of aircraft, however I have dabbled in other areas... sci-fi, interior, landscape, cars, ships... completely self-taught, I use nothing other than Carrara (8.5 Pro) and different versions of Adobe Photoshop.

That being said, here are some of the different aircraft I have modelled over the years.

Gloster Meteor

Tupolev MDR-2

Beriev BE-12
