If I don't quit screwing around here, I may actually end up making a plane...

Please feel free to tear it apart and tell me what's wrong. Wink

Looks good to me!

1 question and one comment:

Are the landing gear struts really that thin?

You seem to have one, or two, polys at the back of the wheel opening in the wheel pants that shows a different lighting effect...amybe a twisted poly or a smoothing group issue.

It is the wrong shade of orange Kevin, it should make your eyes water even when wearing Ray-Bans Wink

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

I agree with SF.... the landing gear overall looks a bit too thin ...

did you make the tires yourself? I usually just pop in the default ds_tire2 and scale to please.

I'll check the file tonight, though...
