I have been playing with this on and off again for the last three weeks When I'm not at work or on practicum. Comments and Crits welcome.

I forgot to post a link to the earlier shots I included in the "Intel" section when requesting info for this plane. :)

Overall shape looks quite good but mesh seems a bit lump and bumpy in places and a little low poly here and there.

Kevion: Other then the general shape I haven't started on some areas, such as the wings, tail and the main gear housing. Is that what you mean by low poly? Can you point out some of the "lumpy and bumpy" parts or are those in the place holder sections too?

The shoulders are a distinctive aspect of this aircraft and a challenge modelling it. You're getting there with the leading edge but I guess the trailing and associated fuse are in your 'not done' sections?

[dadeo911]

The shoulders are giving me nightmares. I almost have them done though. I have to do just a little more blending in the aft of the wings. This comparison shot shows that I'm not toooo far off. :) But I still do have some work to do on it when I get back from school next weekend. Unfortunately now I have to go pack. Perhaps by then I will have a fresh outlook and not be ready just say "F*** it close enough!" :lol:

This picture has the parts that are almost complete. Just some tweaking here and there.

indeed very organice looking (hard :) )

but looking nice.
One thing though. I am not seeing the streched part aft. the wing in the photo, yet I do in your render. What is that?

Hi Guys I'm finally back now. Just in time to go back to work :-)

Cobra6: Is this the "stretched" area you are asking about? If so that is what I was saying I still have some blending to do. Hopefully it won't be too long till I get it done.

[cobra6]

yeah that :)
