Making parts for FMS with
MetasequoiaLE
This is basic technique to make some
parts by using Metasequoia.
It is simple and
easy.
I think you will be able to make other
parts too.
'Undo' in the panel will be a great help for you in this
work.
Tail
Open Metasequioa, and select eprimitivef .
Click cube icon and create.
Change the command to eMovef and redact it
xyz-expand-redact button in the Edit Panel.
Make it wider by x-expand-redact
button and make it thinner by y-expand-redact button.
Change the view from the top by F2
key.
Enclose one point as shown bellow and move
backward by z-slide button.
Symmetrical wing
Make a rectangular parallelepiped from a
cube as we do making a tail, take a look above.
Cut at several points, some spars will
be made.
Select 'Move' and enclose a spar to be
shortened. You can select two spars or edges by using eropef; you can
see the way bellow.
And make the spars smaller by y-expand-redact
button.
Arrange other spars.
If you want to make
it thinner, enclose all of the wing and use y-expand-redact
bottom.
Flat-bottom wing
You can make a flat-bottom wing by
moving some points of upper part of spars.
Slide some spars by
z-slide button if you need.
