Nicely done Ray.
You could go Heavy, and add a second set of 19 shot pods to the outboard pylon Rick

Ray,
That is remarkable. I have a hard time visualizing what size these models are. Would you be willing to include something, an object that we viewers are familiar with, coin, 1" worth of ruler, car key........ That would help realize the size of your models? I'm not asking for this on every image, just something on 1 image of your choice. Again, amazing work, SFX |
