Fighter Plane

Hello all,
I wanted to share my SketchUp learning experience with you
Firstly I wanted to thank everyone here in this great community for your contributions and advice. I may not post much but, I’ve read a lot. Any question I had was answered with the search button
I wanted to do the airplane tutorial from Eric Lay (Boofredlay) that he had written for CatchUp #5 and here are my results. Granted I did things a little differently (that’s my thing ). A couple of screencaps from SketchUp and a couple of renders with the free Maxwell renderer:I also wanted to thank all of the great plugin authors and their contributions to a fantastic program. The following are the plugins I used for this project:
From Fredo6:
Tools on surface
Fredo Scale
CurveLoft
Round Corners
From TIG:
Mirror
Extrusion Tools
From Brian ConCannon:
Face2Face

Neat!! I like it. Reminds me of an illustration in a text book I had back at Purdue in 1955: It had a whole page of drawings of aircraft as envisioned by different disciplines - aerodynamics, controls, powerplant, etc. This looks at lot like the powerplant version.
Obviously for short fights
Might want to make the cockpit windows transparent

Great work, I love it.

Thanks everyone
Bob, I didn't make the cockpit clear because I was too lazy to do the interior.
And thank you Boofredlay for that awesome tutorial. I learned a ton about SketchUp from it

Your welcome.
