Brilliant image! When I first learned of the B-36, my adolescent reaction was "You're kidding, right?" Now I can appreciate it as one of the two intermediate steps as classic prop-driven WW2 bombers were being replaced by modern Jet Age bombers. With the B-36 it was like the designers still did not quite trust these newfangled jet engines. And of course the glass nose window and the multiple gunners were kinda nostalgic. Then there is the B-47, the other imtermediate step. No more gunners, no more propellers, and swept wings. BUT the pilots sat in a bubble cockpit just like WW2 and Korean War fighters. Combine the best of both aircraft and you get the B-52. Stray thought-- if someone has the software to model a Goblin, it would be interesting to see that bizarre experiment actually doing its intended job of protecting its B-36 mothership.

Awesome! I completely love the reflection of the camera plane on the '36s nose! excellent detail! The lighting and shaders are top notch, and I love the depth cueing. Another Model Kit BoxTop right here! This looks amazing. I am thrilled to be a part of this!

I forgot to say that I replaced the props with cone shapes and the blades with a small vertical plane on which I mapped the prop blur from Bazze's Spitfire. cgoverlord the models are Poser models exported from DAZ Studio and imported into Bryce. richimoto if you keep modelling these I'll keep rendering them ^_^
