Yes I look forward to it there is a good trick for panel lines I will post it here in your thread if you dont mind when I find it? but if you can make this plane you already probably can use this technique?
Well keep up the good work ill be keeping an eye on it!

Shaderlight provides a great user experience for a newcomer to computer graphics like me. Gives me another reason to stick with SketchUp.

Nice render Michael - and it's great to see that you're using the Shaderlight beta. Obviously with the artificial lights and GI (in the full version coming very soon!), you'll get even better results with interior scenes.
Keep posting your images, we love to see what everyone's working on!

...I have attached the .pdf file. It may come in handy even if you decide to build a rubber band powered Fokker 😄
And if you´re willing to spend a few bucks, there are some good plans here http://unclewilliesplans.com/about4.html
Cheers!

Yep,those are the plans I used. The photos of the plane in flight look quite a bit better than the plan version.

I'll check out the other site. If I'm going to spend several weeks on a project, a few bucks for some good plans seems like a good investment. I was laughing this morning at the fact that I just spent $600 on a pc to run a free program.

Thanks for that response. I was hoping for something in the way of an elegant shortcut, but at least it is good to have some place to start.
