Planes

Hi all and a happy 2011..! I haven't been posting lately because I am currently "engaged" with personal issues as well as having to prepare myself for a change of job. Anyhow, I haven't been MS Excel-ing lately, but this is a work which I have done in 2010 (sounds pretty long ago, but it isn't..maybe around november 2010?). I call it the devil plane, not so sure why but it looks good in red. Anyhow the above image I have used photoshop to create some of the effects like the rotating propellers. It would like below if I haven't done any photoshopping:-




Just to prove that it is 3D..here's a side view of the plane.



And the plans of the plane basically:-
The plane, if you notice, is not that symmetrical (one wing looks longer than the other). It is a fault difficult to rectify as I have played a lot with the blending options, making it difficult to calculate the exact displacement.
More images and variation of the "devil" plane:-



I call this the stealth version, though it won't be so stealthy if it is propeller type anyways.
One in which I blend one of Windows' sample pictures with my Excel work (plug and paste).

Just a show as well that I do not only draw mechanical things, but also structures as well, I attach an image of an ongoing project below which shows the different views of a building I drew (well, not exactly to scale, but I fully utilize the 1584 length of the shape).

 Basically its like a 5 storey apartment with huge windows and balcony per floor. It's 3D meaning you can rotate and view the building from different views. Main thing to get this right? remember the displacement for each floors.
