I thought this needed its own thread. I have been posing pictures in my restoration thread but these did not seem to belong there. So I am starting a thread for paint ideas and just cool images of Starduster Toos yet to be seen.
All the posts here will be based on a model made by Rohr 3D Solutions which can be found here and rendered by me using a program called Blender, which can be found here. This all came out of the need to understand what a given paint scheme would look like from all angles. I started with paper and pens and a 3 view sketch of a Starduster. I tried several designs and thought I had what I wanted.
Then I moved to a computer drawing to further refine and try out different color variations. This worked well, but did not give me a sense for the curves of this beautiful airplane.
The led me to work with Rohr 3D solutions to make an accurate representation of a Starduster Too that I could "paint", without destroying anything. This process has been so helpful.
