DESCRIPTION

Detailed model of an Avro Vulcan B.2 strategic nuclear bomber.

Modelling and Rigging

The entire model consists of 38 objects (with an additional 14 empties for rigging purposes) with a total of 35,119 vertices and 33,802 faces, not including the subdivision surface modifiers. Including the modifiers at the recommended levels (or in the .fbx version) there is a total of 539,885 vertices and 535,956 faces.

The model comes with fully rigged undercarriage, bomb-bay doors and airbrakes, each with a single controller to operate them. The flight control surfaces consisting of the four elevons and the rudder are also easily animated.

Note: The rigged controls are only available in the native .blender format.

Materials and Textures

The model is fully UV unwrapped and uses a single PBR material with five 8k texture maps - base colour, metallic, specular, roughness and normal.

The paint scheme is based on that from the last Vulcan bomber to actually fly - XH558.

Positive but! A lovely model however, whereas the Valiant has all of the cockpit framing present there is none on the Vulcan. Also, when the OBJ file is imported into MeshMixer the radar nose is completely deformed which changes the whole profile of the nose.

Steve has some really great models, good detail and more importantly well modelled with attention to poly flow. Well worth the price.

Geometry
No N-gons
N-gons are polygons with five or more sides which might cause issues in certain processes like rendering or animation. Learn more
No faceted geometry
Faceted geometry uses flat surfaces without smoothing, which can look unrealistic on curves.
Learn more
Manifold geometry
Manifold geometry ensures all surfaces are properly connected, avoiding issues like edges shared by more than two faces.

Textures & material
PBR textures
PBR textures simulate how light interacts with materials, making the model look realistic under different lighting.
Required PBR textures:
- Base Color
- Roughness
- Metalness
- Normal
Learn more
No embed textures
Embedded textures are stored inside the model file, increasing its size and sometimes causing compatibility issues.
Learn more
Square textures
Texture aspect ratio is the width-to-height ratio of a texture. Expected texture aspect ratio: 1:1
Learn more
Power of 2 texture sizes
Textures with dimensions in power of two (e.g. 512x512px, 1024x1024px) are used to optimize performance and memory usage.
Learn more
Assigned materials
Materials are applied to the 3D model to allow visualize a model's surface properties and appearance.
Learn more
UVs & naming
No UV overlaps
UVs overlap when multiple points on the 3D model's surface are mapped to the same point on the UV island causing texture stretching.
Learn more
UV unwrapped model
A UV unwrapped model means its 3D surface is flattened into 2D space, allowing textures to be applied accurately.

Information and details shared directly by the model's designer.
3D Features
The model includes animations (movement or actions) that can be played in supported software or engines.
The model has a skeleton or bone structure, making it ready for posing or animation.
PBR
Uses Physically Based Rendering materials, which give the model realistic lighting and surface properties.
Textures
The model includes image files (textures) that add color, patterns, or detail to its surfaces.
Materials
The model has material settings that define how surfaces look (color, shine, transparency, etc.).
UV Mapping
The model's surfaces are mapped to a 2D image, allowing textures to display correctly.
Plugins Used
Some external plugins were used to create the model. These may be required for full functionality.
3D printing
Indicates whether the designer marked this model as suitable for 3D printing.
Model is not 3D printable
The designer indicates this model is intended for digital use only (rendering, animation, or AR/VR) and not for 3D printing.
