Hey everyone.

This is my latest project in progess - an airplane model / scene based on the PZL p11 from the late 30s.

The model is slowly progressing and I'm beginning to think of the pilot. Then I got the idea that it maybe could be fun to make my next scene into a joint venture with somebody from this forum?

So.. would anybody like to create a crazy pilot for this bird? (upper body would be enough) It will be included in the package when I release the model as a freebie (and credited of course)

Some pictures of how it will look:

That shouldn't be a problem, bazze. I think Drac's allergic to Poser. :^)

Sorry, forgot to say great modeling. I forget...what modeler do you use? Drac: How about a robot pilot? You could call him Otto Pilot. (Sorry, I can never resist a pun).

A small update.. added some more details and corrected the shape of the wings. Here's the mesh

UV-mapped the model and started painting textures

I could see a pilot with big goggle and a huge silly grin on his face, kind of like he's cazy. Of course, he would have to be crazy to fly that!
