the model of the rocket Delta-IVHeavy for Celestia is ready... enjoy...

The model of Titan-4B...

Very good, natural texture!

Yes very good !
Toutatis, you found a site with good models?

Thanks Croc and Gironde...

Yes, Gironde... all these rocket models from "Orbiter" Add-ons... https://www.orbithangar.com/index.php
But! all the parts of the models there in a separated meshes... so it's need to convert, combine, texture all these meshes to get ready-made models for Celestia... lot of work... but it's interesting...

I started work with Hayabusa-2 model...

I'm trying to open the solar panels...

Solar panels of the Hayabusa-2 model have been successfully unfolded...

Added after 1 minute 26 seconds:
The next step is texturing...

New Landsat 7 add-on... I fixed all visual defects of the old model... and corrected SSC-file...

was added the impactor...

Changes in the design and texture are visible, the quality has improved.

Surely now Landsat looks pretty nice.
If I can, I suggest you a bit more "convolute" or "wizened" foil, and possibly with a less reddish color, as you see in this image it looks more yellow gold than red copper....



Well done, appreciated.

Okay Goofy... and thanks..

Hayabusa-2 testing...

I think tomorrow all 4 models will be ready...

All 3 models of Hayabusa-2 are ready for use in Celestia... the orbit parameters in this add-on is just for testing... for real orbit need XYZV-file...

Hayabusa-2 models...

the new Landsat 7 is really better than the previous one.

Hayabusa 2 is really very interesting. His mission resembles that of Rosetta. It carries a SCI impactor, a MASCOT lander and 3 MINERVA rovers (A, 1B, and 2). The MASCOT lander is a collaboration of Germany and France and is derived from Philae.

The flight from Hayabusa 2 to Ryugu will have to be completed from the terrestrial orbit to the orbit around Ryugu and then perhaps the landing on Ryugu, and the return to Earth.


Hayabusa 2 is very close to the appearance of Hayabusa 1. Is not it possible to deduce a model for Hayabusa 1? Toutatis you seem to be more and more comfortable with modeling.

Bravo Toutatis

Toutatis,

Here a model untreated for Hayabusa (1 or 2 ?)
format Colloda .dae
source : 3D Warehouse

format .dae is importable to Blender

When you publish modified models which originated from other sources, it would be appropriate to include credits saying where you got them and, if known, who created them.

Yes, you are right Selden... but the most of them not a ready made models even... and there more work to prepare them for visualisation in Celestia...

Hayabusa-1...

Now I will start work with "Swift Telescope" ... It's need to fix visual defects and also need to add some parts to the model that are missing in the original model ...
