No comments hu, well maybe its true that only pro's get comments in here?
this is my second wip I post here I get no comments on. I think its strange because other ppl do get comments.
IS IT THAT BAD???

OK, here are my comments, for what they are worth:
I'm not sure what look you are going for here, the lack of detail and bulky features make it look a bit like 'my first plane'..a bit childish.
I believe that when you are building something you kind of need to build a background for that model. Eg: who is going to be sitting in that strange plane? Basically ask yourself why you are modelling what you are modelling. Unless you are just doing soemthing to practise your modelling skills then you can be your own critic.
Am I making sense?:shrug:

OK you made your point very clear "I suck" is it that what you mean??
Well actually there will be no pilot, and it is meant to be a toy for kids, thats what the contest is all about. We nees te model a toy and it was completely not meant to be realistic if thats a problem too.
My skills are not good enough to make realistic models so I try to do my best with some less complex models that are NOT based on some real things.

Hey there...I am not a mindreader!! Why didn't you say it was for kids in the first place?
Whats the point of asking for crits and then getting defensive?
I don't think you suck...that would be the most unproductive criticism ever!!

OK I'm really sorry MPV. Thought I mentioned the contest type in the first tread but I didnt I see, sorry for attacking you if you think I was doing. I was allready happy someone replyed.
But I really didnt want to attack you because that could be the worst thing i could do.
Sorry I didnt mention the intentions in the first post.
It is a long time since I posted anything here for same reason as mentioned above, and now I finally posted again (because they told me I schould do it) and then I forget the most important part. Sorry man

No worries buddy. Good luck with the competition and remember - god is in the DETAIL. BTW I wasn't meaning 'photoreal' when I said realistic. I mean that all modellers want to create something you can imagine being touched and animated. I reckon with some plastic texture in primary colours and some joins and screw holes for detail it could be really good. If you could update with some colour that would be good?!;)
