You have a lot of work to do. Nice idea.

Nice model btw, I really like your way of setting the blueprint up

yep its really shame that they scrapped almost every single B-29, (and they were fully working planes aswell).

I really like your way of setting the blueprint up

thats just some experimental set up, i seems to work pretty well btw.

anyways i remodeled whole nose/cocpit section all over again, just because old one was bit too low poly

Looks like a fun project

Looks great, you should make somekind of animation with it. Flying above clouds against nightsky or something hehe

Hehe well that'd be sweet

There's guy called Pinky at GTA Forums who has played lots with planes and GTA. I guess he could be guy for that job. I don't know much of putting planes for it, handling are tricky to make for planes atleast

[LOST]

Lookin' very good so far. Keep it goin'!

Very nice Superfortress.
Heh, as much as I love aircraft I rarely ever model real planes, I usually just model ideas I have either in my head or on paper. Although, I did model a Vought XF5U Flying Pancake, a Bell AH-1S Cobra, and a modified F-14D Super Tomcat. I guess I could post pics in my thread...

I am glad to see the aricraft you are doing! great stuff indeed!

[Icekid84]

Great work thus far, some real beautiful structure youve done on this behemoth, would be awsome in GTA too.

[Zachary]

just started to working on center section of plane (including wings and engine mounts).

(radial engines are not shown in these pics).

[Silent][Moebius]
