There really are some good models hidden deep inside the warehouse.

Hello Simon, a few more and you'll have an airshow
Pete posted a beauty render a couple of years ago but I can't find it now

Really cool. Looks like a heads-up display on the cockpit?

The model was excellent in its detail I did some minor sub division on the nose cone. I also added the pilots and the HUD detail and a small interior light source for the rear aviator. I have seen some real photos with the green light source it definately adds authenticity.

I'm not so sure how I can use this object in my archviz scenes ! Here's hoping for an aviation contract.

John next I have something interesting coming on a much smaller scale but still aviation. Here is a clue it arrives in 5-6 large suitcases and is assembled in the field.

Fantastic render

I'm getting ready to do my first aircraft model, this beast is gonna be quite a challenge.
Still gathering reference photos right now.
