Ferry well then

Ferris Wheel

Here is the progress of the Ferris Wheel. It's almost done and should be finished once I have learnt how to solve a duplicate/rotation problem.

WHAT I NEED TO DO:

- Chair Positions
- Additional Supports
- Possible Enterance/Landing

The chairs can't rotate/duplication correctly due to the model itself, in which I have to move it into position. Since this could be animated I can't just "guess" where they go and it most be near to accurate for it to work.
The additional support is to for more detail and realistic control of the ride. This can be skipped and I need to learn how to move and rotate the holds into position.
The enterance might be skipped as our group discussed to hide the bottom of this ride by covering it up with another object. It was just to how the audience of the funfair "enter" and use the ride. Here are the usual snapies:




Looking better, though the chairs are not the right shape as I had hoped it to be, and less details as I visioned. Should be ready soon, and oh Leonard (if you're reading this)I need the model of the Lightbulb if it's 100% done. Thanks.
