Don't cross me...

..when I am drawing rivets, just don't

Uh, you can play 'guess the plane' if you want, but it's really, really easy given recent form...

Looks like a lot of work to me....

I just wish I could see the picture.

Changed to an attachment - it is very wide though...

I don't see a prop... must be one of those new-fangled jets....

Good job drawing all those little "o" s [i.e. Cheerios]

woah man may i ask how long that actually took

 

[Thorlifter]

What are you using for these prelimenary designs? If it's any type of CAD program (AutoCAD or MicroStation), you would just love the array or multiple copy command.

 

[Clave]

I do the whole thing in Illustrator, so duplication is possible - in a straight line - but putting them on a curve is not...

I think there's 3 hours+ worth of rivets there, but I wasn't really watching the clock...

 

[Clave]

Also - *sigh of relief* I am glad to get this next bit out of the way:

I am very impatient! I just plod through this bit, but I really want to get on to doing the camo, markings and shading...

There is some sort of night fighter in the pipeline, but it's a way off yet...

Su-22 Fitter

Indeed.. been in the back of my mind for a while, but I'm going to stay away from Rivet Hell for a while after this current project. Soviet planes have waay too many fasteners!

So does that mean it is an Su-22, Clave? Looks like one and I think my comment may have gotten lost in your fan club.

 

[Clave]

I don't have a reference drawing for the Su-22, sorry...

Edit: scrub that.. it's a variation of the Su-17, so there is a chance after all...

 

[Clave]

Progress!

Time to move on to the best bits - colouring, markings, shading etc...

 

[Wayne Little]

Phew... that sure puts some perspective on just how much work is required in the early stages.....Great stuff man!
