hi guys finally I finished the plane, this on it's from the movie Indiana Jones -Raiders of the Lost Ark-, even it was an imagination airplane but I'm so excited to make one, the 3view and detail from forbiddenplastic.com
its still rough on the testbuild model.you can grab it here.FYI some image was blur with purpose, because the swastika insignia was forbidden in come countries.
thanks

Hey, that came out pretty good. That is a great subject. I like it!:D
I understand about the swastika. Too bad you need to do that. In some cultures that is actually a good luck symbol.
But, let's not turn this into a debate. The model looks great and thank you for sharing it.

I just downloaded the kit. Very nicely designed! :D...and the version with the cross vise swastika looks great. Again, thank you for sharing!

thank the paper lords!!

I have tried to sit down a few times and design this thing...
I collected an enormous number of references shots from the film
including preproduction designs from the original maker of this plane.
I've got a number of reference models to mash together elements.
My goal was to put my weak designing skills to the test and create this plane.
But I have gotten absolutely nowhere with this
and just keep frustrating myself everytime I look at it!!

LOL
and now here it is!...all done and ready for me to build!
fabulous!

only issue is some of the insignia are reversed...will require some paint editing

Very nice looking model you've got there Tekzo. Just one small nitpick, It used a 3 bladed prop in the movie not a 4 bladed prop.
