    I'm glad to see how enthusiastic you are about 3D on the Amiga!
I'm curious though about what triplane object you are referring to.  If
you mean the Red Baron's 1917 Fokker Dr1, that is actually a VideoScape 3D
object.  I created it last May by tracing top and side view drawings from
a library book, and then I stuck an ellipsoidal pilot's head (with goggles,
leather cap, and grim expression) in the cockpit.

    If someone has made a triplane object for Sculpt 3D, I would like to
see it.  By the way, I wrote a utility to convert Sculpt 3D objects into
VideoScape files that works nicely.  I'm thinking of freely distributing
it if anyone is interested...
