          I've scrapped the canard design. It simply didn't fit for the design in terms of funtionality. I've also added a rudimentary set of landing gears.

                Indeed. However I'm finding the aft landing gear particularly difficult to make correctly. I wouldn't mind some suggestions as to how to make them. I do have a design in mind for the front.

                    Very nice models. They look low poly...? Are you intending to use them in-game? A good source of photos of landing gear is flickr. I got all my resource for my planes from there.

                    Some people are lovers, some are fighters, if you love to fight, fight for love!
