This is a cel shaded work in progress DYRL VF-1 ejection seat. You'll note that there are a few missing pieces. This isn't going to be the highest poly model in the world, so I might ignore some of the bolts and fasteners. Obviously the underside of the seat is not yet done.

Well if the Ejection seat is anything like tha tVF..............................oops I gotta keep my mouth shut for a lil while longer doo doo doo.

Good work bro :p

Awesome... you can actually post it here...

Huh, I can never get YouTube embed tags to work here... how'd you do that?

Meanwhile... since rendering more movies seems to be a crashfest, here's some stills. You'll note that the proportions are not exact on the model. This is because every picture I've found has totally different proportions. No real schematics to base it on, just sort of approximating all of the different references I used.

When you're posting turn on HTML and then embed the code.

Aw man. I just tried activating the little HTML button next to "Insert Special Item", copied my embed code, and then saved the html, then posted, and I got nothing. This after rendering that movie kept TURNING MY COMPUTER OFF. Not crashing it. Not freezing it. Turning it off. Stroke of bad luck over here.

Looking good! :)

Maybe this schematic can help you with the proportions:

Yes, yes it can. Awesome find man. I'm going to see if I can tweak my model now with making me tear my hair out. I've been having so many computer issues these past few days that I almost walked away from the chair forever.

Yes, but according to your schematic view, this ejection seat:

Is a little different, due to the seat's rocket muzzles, it seems to be bigger than the schematic's. I'm working in a 1/48 ejection seat (and then a 1/48 non-transformable VF-1) and I'm having problems with the seat, it makes the cockpit floor to be too low and there is not enough room for the landing gear... Well, I think I'll find a way to solve it...

Uh oh, what's that new-timey flight suit doing in that old-timey cockpit, huh?

Very cool, although, I wonder why he looks like he wants to make a left turn :p
