Well, I needed a break from pushing verts on my current beast WIP, so I Started this plane instead:
I think I will completely render in YAFray for this one along the way.

PS: I will still be doing my beast as well. just taking a break.
Sweet, man! I dig the soft edges. Great modeling! Can’t wait to see how it turns out

A plane. Nice. It should look great. You are going to do the whole plane right? I hope so. Will it take quite a long while to make?
very nice 
how about a mini - mini tut on how you did the “soft” curve at the very front
cheers

Thanks for the replies.
Of course I’ll do the whole thing. As for time, who knows. Depends on how much detail I want in there. We’ll see. %|
Nothing special. Just add a Circle. Extrude out a bit, scale down, extrude a bit again, scale, repeat. Then press the sub-d button and set to level 3. that’s all.

Well, sometimes I am doubting that you are using a different application :). Only talented people bring a good work using whatever application.
Nice work BgDM, as usual.
very cool.
and i know what you mean, its nice to model something solid and mechanical after modelling organics.
Cool add rivets!
(maybe wings too)

the curve of the cockpit isn’t quite so smooth. look closely and you can see the subdivisions.
also, if you are going for a realistic look, i would extend the engine compartment, as it looks a little small at the moment.
and try upping your samples in yafray, reduce that grain a little.
later

u need it, hum?
looks good
Thanks for all the comments guys!
Thanks again Evry! It is definitly Blender modelled. Don’t you worry about that. 
Yes it is.
I’m not too sure about rivets. I may go for a nice clean, more futuristic look on this one. Wings are on there way.
Well, that is not the cockpit for starters, will become more evident what it is in a little while, but I saw the problem there as well. Will be fixed down the road on later renders.
Samples will be upped on final render and hopefully with some better lighting as well.

UPDATE
I think you can see where this is sort of going now.
And yes, this is a Blender render. YAFray just takes too long for WIP stuff. Don’t know why I said I would do that. That was just a stupid thought. %|

hmm
maybe a new Wipeout craft 
?
hmm, really nice details
No real comment yet. Except, nice work!

BgDM

I really want to fly that thing when it’s finished.
Keep up the great work

UPDATE - 07/11/03
Added the guns on the bottom and some minor engine details. Not much that you can really see yet. Mirrored so you can get an idea to scale and proprtions I am going for.
BgDM
dude this is looking awsome… hmm… wonder what yell do with the rest… i WANNA SEE IT FINSIHED!!! NOW!
Looks cool, but it doesnt have any wings Or is it turning into a pod racing type vehicle?
