This is the first time I've put Snoopy and the Red Baron in my lightbox.
Years ago, I made the Monogram 1:28 Fokker DR-1 with markings for the Red Baron. Fun kit.

In 1998, I taught a 3D modeling class using a software called Caligari
Truespace. I came up with an idea. I made a 3D "model kit" of the Red Baron's airplane. I made the pieces and the class helped with texture maps and some additional modeling. The last step was to make the propeller spin.
In the process of doing this, I had to make a worthy adversary for the Red Baron. Using the cool organic 3D modeling tools in the software, Snoopy took flight on his doghouse in 3D! "Curse you Red Baron!"
I found a Snoopy toy/sculpture which let me complete my physical diorama. Now we can "dogfight" around the house.
Happy New Year!
