And one of the most beautiful shapes on an aeroplane...the Comet !
I also added a bit of metal texture, photoreal windows, like in the AFgs Caravelle...

Well, if it can fly and man made it,...its beautiful ;)

but you know what I meant, the work involved...I know nothing about model design, polygons, etc,...so I still have that weird feel of a child in a toy shop, when I see a well detailed FS aircraft.
this would be the case...and I mean it ;)

I loved the little stair at the door, and the passenger cabin ...didnt find a way to open the "nose" yet,..:)

lovely work...just lovely.

off to bed now, ;)
take care, fellas,

Thanks Rui

Wingfold opens the nose and tailhook opens the top hatch.....did you notice the door handle move with the door opening :worried:

When you open the nose the handwheel that they used turns too :)

"Passion for detail"...my moto ;)

Also loved the intricate engine design, all the blades in there...the subtle windows and see-through effect, with nicely detailed interiors...
and not just grey or black areas...the cockpit shape is very well done, all the windows and pillars...the inside too...
say it again, Beautifullll !!!

now how about that Ambassador!?!? :Dance: :Dance: :Dance: kidding, just kidding,...on a second hand...maybe not ,..;)
