    Started making a VTOL bomber, this modelling lark is fun. Modelled and rendered in Blender.

    Rendered smooth:

    Rendered solid:

    EDIT: Now working on MkII, I am trying to concentrate on giving it a Brenodi feel:

    Edit2:
    Updated, made it less fat and more streamlined. Added VTOL jets in the wings that are able to rotate to direct the bomber in flight as well as for takeoff/landing.

    It should be a new rule on the forums:
    Do not submit models if you would not give them to a potential employer.

    This is half okay. You have to realise not everything needs to have the same amount of polies everywhere, and machinery/vehicles have hard edges!

    Well stuff handed to an employer isn't 100% professional, but most of this modeling I could do in paint better.
    [The OP is one of the best models I've seen of the community]

    NO ! YOU MUST DO ALL 360^3 different possible views of that plane, at a reasonable size.

    how did you do those alpha channels in paint? paint does not normally support it :o

    I opened it in IRFANview and resaved it with a transparent color.

    The background was pink :P

    Oh, and @ JMS.
    Critics don't make movies.
    I wish people would stop saying "Don't criticize it if you can't do it better"
    Dumbest thing I ever hear, and I hear it a lot.

    your logic is faulty, individuals alone do not make movies in general, large numbers of people of money do. the scale of movies to people is far greater as well.

    book writers critique other books and their opinions are valued however.

    AWESOMENESS.

    One thing though... make the tail look like the back end of the BE dropship.

    For reference.

    It is my honest opinion that everyone who desires it can give an opinion about a certain subject, even when he is completely uneducated for it!

    It is however also my honest opinion that these particular opinions do not need to be scaled to the same level as the professionals opinions...

    Updated, made it less fat and more streamlined. Added VTOL jets in the wings that are able to rotate to direct the bomber in flight as well as for takeoff/landing.
