The Convair XP-55 Ascender was an experimental fighter aircraft from the end of WW II. It had a pusher propeller, highly swept-back wings with rudders near their tips, and large canard-form elevators on the nose. Its odd configuration gave the initial impression that it flew backwards, Three prototypes were built and flown, one of which still exists. The design had serious low speed control deficiencies and was ultimately unsuccessful.
My model, which will be a fully rigged Poser figure compatible with DAZ Studio, is about midway through development. I'm in the process of refining the mesh and laying out the UVs.

Constructing the landing gear took a good deal of work and their Poser rigging will too.
