High poly modeling

This week I have redone the wings. I also did the high poly version of the outer sections for the Spitfire. I think I'll do the panels in Zbrush and bake them onto it or failing that, I shall paint them in Substance Painter later. Also this week, I ended up modeling the cockpit for the Spitfire - this took up most of the week.

Whilst trying to find references for the cockpit, I couldn't find any good reference pictures. However, I did find something better. I found two 360 views of a Spitfire cockpit (unfortunately they aren't the right mark but it'll do for reference)

I also couldn't find any good refs for the Spitfire cockpit chair, so I did have to look at some models (i.e. Airfix models) for reference:

Next week: Clean up the low poly model and start unwrapping
