The Lockheed Star Liner was developed as a competitor to the
Douglas DC-7C which was selling much better than the Lockheed
Constellations. The performance of the
Constellations was not as good as the DC-7 and range was shorter too. The Star liner was given an improved wing,
bigger engines for speed and more fuel for better range. However performance was not as good as the
DC-7C and sales were not as good as hoped. 57 were built. Only a couple are
still flying and most have been scraped, or destroyed.

The model was built near to scale in real units and built
based on drawings, photos, and other documents. This model has a moderately
detailed cockpit and the following animateable features; ailerons, split flaps,
elevators, rudder, propeller (is animated), canopy, landing gear, and landing
gear doors.These models render very well and look very realistic using good
animation and rendering technique. It can be used in
an animated or static position within an animation or animated video, or
possibly for programming for a flight simulation application.

This model was not designed for 3d printing, these are to be used as digital
files only.

Exporting of models is limited but good for several software
applications. This model is fully
textured with all materials UVW mapped and applied. Most materials are planar
mapped and major materials include texturing. All textures and materials are included as shown. Objects are logically
named for ease of scene management.No cleaning up necessary, just drop your
models into the scene and start rendering.No special plug-ins are needed to
open scene.

In most cases the liveries are based on actual service
liveries or paint schemes. Many of the units,
airlines or countries who flew the plane are represented here.

Dreamscape Studios is a US 3d modeling firm specializing
in building high definition, accurate, and detailed 3D models of commercial, civilian,
and military airplanes, ships, buildings and other subjects.Dreamscape 3d models
are built in ultra-low to ultra-high polygon count, (most often) near to scale
and include a good amount of detail based on the resolution target. If you have
a question, error or problem with the model, let us know and we will do our
best to provide or get a solution for you. Be advised our models are not
designed for 3d printing unless they are advertised for that purpose.
