3D Paper Plane
Posted by Joel Hooton on December 15, 2006 at 2:57 pmHere is the 3d paper airplane I made. Several post have requested help with making one. I will link the zip file with all of the needed files for the AEP project. If there is any interest in a step by step tutorial on how i basically did it let me know and I will put one together.
Here is the file

December 15, 2006 at 4:00 pmI have not animated it flying. However. Everything is parented to a 3D null. If you move or scale or rotate the null, the plane follows. Plus the folds in the plane are controlled by expressions. the first fold needs to be finished before the 2nd and so forth. All you do to manipulate the paper is keyframe the 4 expressions on the control layer.

Thanks for sharing!
