These are awesome!
The Corsair II is really, really well done.
I really like the landing gear. It's so hard to integrate solid gear like you
did. Very smooth.
The decals you've created (yes no?) really add alot to it as well. Your use of
non Lego pieces kind of irks me, but I don't blame you for the cockpit. Lego
doesn't make anything useful in that regard.
You've nailed the overall feel of the plane quite perfectly. The rounded off
fuselage on top looks really cool.
What did you use for the thruster?
Your F-14's are really nice as well. Again you've got the overall form nailed.
Cool wing folding mechanism.
I really like the skyhawk's camouflage. It's blocky, but seeing as you're
working with rather large sized blocks, you did a really good job. The landing
gear are top notch as well.
The Vigilante is sweet. The landing gear on this one is really cool, and very
well packaged considering its size. I like the hook as well.
Overall you've got alot of really nice tapering going on, which keeps all your
planes from looking too terribly Lego-y.
Awesome stuff Raplh! I look forward to more. I really appreciate the write ups
you include as well. This is a really good idea, as there are alot of people who
see models on Brickshelf, but don't come to LUGNET to read the write ups.
See ya
