I've started to add a lot of conceptual pencil design art to two new albums up on my photo-host site. Never mind some of the crummy colored photos. Remember, most of them are pretty loose ideas. I wiil add another ten to twenty designs in the next week or so and will continue to add albums as neccessary to fit them all in, at least until I develop a proper web site to "hangar" this stuff, and my art in general. Take a look-see, any feedback is appreciated. John Backlund (Bigfun)

John - I like the two twin engined concepts.
Tax season is taking a toll on my flightsim modelling time, but I've re-winged the Neptoon and will be building a new fuselage - to the original shape - and a third with cockpit blended into the tail fin?
Remember - you also promised three views of the SDANG Buffalojet and the gyrocopter....

I fell in love with the Boomerang concept!
Just imagine it with Vari-eze style retracting nosewheel...yum.

Thanks for taking a look at the aircraft, check back over there in a week or ten days and there will be some new stuff. Some of the aircraft that are now just relatively "loose" pencils will become much more refined and developed eventually as three-view line art, and possibly full airbrush renderings just to hang on a wall, if nothing else. The "Boomerang" is (I think, anyway) a beautiful ship and is one of several that will probably get the "deluxe" treatment before too long. It's difficult to find time to do the three-views, but it's kind of a labor of love, and a very satisfying thing to do. With the flight sims, there is now a possibility to "Flesh out" some of these things that would otherwise just remain a twinkle in my eye, so to speak. Who knows, maybe someone who sees one flying around in the simulation will build a real one someday.

Thanks for looking at the "planes". That particular aircraft has a powerful look to it, it's large overall with big engines & props. For some reason, a lot of my twin designs were (that drawing is probably five years old) of the twin boom fuselage variety. Probably just a "period" I was going through.
