Hello!
I`d like present you my newest project. This time someting famous, modern and and very fast.

French fighter Dassault Rafale C. More about this aircraft you can read here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dassault_Rafale

At the beginning of the design I must to model shape of the fuselage. Then I will divide it in sections.

Best regards.

That's a nice looking rendering. The nose of this plane could prove fiendish in paper

OMG OMG !!!! My favorite jet!!! Can't wait to see this one build.

Hello!
willygoat: thank you! About nose... I`ll think about it very intensive it to get glued like best.
Dragos: thank you! Rafale is one from my favorite jets too (another: MIG-29, SU-22, F-15 Eagle, Panavia Tornado). I think that Rafale is prettier than Eurofighter therefore I chose him for the design.

Ok, next part.

Best regards.

I think that the French have better aestetic taste as the brits or the germans

Any chance of seeing lines and points to see how you get the shapes you do?

Cheers JTF

You do have to go back a few years to see a real pretty fighter from the UK. I think the Hunter had classic lines. But my favorite is the Lighting, a truly stunning looking airplane.

Emm, think I'll go in search of some plans.

Cheers JTF

Sorry if I offended you JT , but personally I like more the french planes.
Ironic, but I never designed or build a fernch airplane until now , but I've designed couple of british ones and I have plans to design more.

No offense taken.

As for French planes I'd pick the Mirage F1 and the Super Entard as the pick of the crop.

Cheers JTF

Hello!
Dragos and JT Fox: Friends! Easy, relax please! Don`t quarrel who designs beautiful and who design ugly aircraft. In each country where the aircraft are designed, were, are and will be beautiful and ugly constructions. For one Rafale is wonderful for the second Eurofighter. It is a matter of taste.

Next part of modeling of fuselage.

Best regards.
