I have posted the 3D model of the H.L. Hunley for sale on Turbosquid. Click here to view.

For those of you who do not know about the Hunley, here is a brief description:

H. L. Hunley was a submarine of the Confederate States of America that played a small part in the American Civil War. The Confederate States Ship (CSS) Hunley demonstrated both the advantages and the dangers of undersea warfare. The CSS Hunley was the first submarine to sink an enemy warship, although the submarine was also lost following the successful attack. The Confederates lost 32 men in CSS Hunley’s career. The submarine was renamed after the death of her inventor, Horace Lawson Hunley, and some time after she had been taken into the Confederate forces at Charleston, South Carolina.

H. L. Hunley, almost 40 feet (12 meters) long, was built at Mobile, Alabama, launched in July 1863, and shipped by rail to Charleston, South Carolina on August 12, 1863. On February 17, 1864, Hunley attacked and sank the 1240-short ton (1124 metric tons)^[1] screw sloop USS Housatonic in Charleston harbor, but soon after, Hunley also apparently sank, drowning all eight crewmen. Over 136 years later, on August 8, 2000, the wreck was recovered, and on April 17, 2004, the DNA-identified remains of the eight Hunley crewmen were interred in Charleston’s Magnolia Cemetery with full military honors.

There is talk of Mississippi State unveiling a new football helmet for next year. The pictures that are floating around have us going back to the maroon helmets with a white M State logo. You can view these photos here. This is a rendering I did of the new concept.

I created the helmet in Cinema 4d and designed the logo in Photoshop. I like the helmet design and will probably be doing more teams from time to time.  Download the Desktop by clicking on the size you need below.

I turned to the History Channel the other day and watched a show on the Civil War that had a story about the Hunley, a Confederate Submarine. Since my wife is out of town and I had nothing else to do I decided to model it. View the 1024×768 Desktop Image. (after opening, right click – save image as) I had an idea to do a short clip with the camera starting off in the water during a night time battle with the Hunley. As the camera comes out of the water you see the top part of her hull with explosions in the background on land. Don’t hold your breath on that one though. Just a thought. Anyways, I will at least be posting this on Turbosquid for sale. I’ll update you as soon as I do that. Note: (This model contians historical inacurracies which I will correct)
