Description

Just an interesting size comparison making use of a few of my models. The AN-225 exists in Russia, although there is only one in service. Maximum take-off weight = 661 Tons! This rendering (at 4x this size) took about 8 hrs. on an Athlon 2400+. This is due to the fact I used a 22 unit light array for the sun and there are lots of reflective surfaces, not to mention the overall size of the scene.

Wonderful work ! How do you create the curves ? with path, by moving points or another way?

Thanks for the complement. The curves in my aircraft models are basically made by moving points. I start with tube, rod, hemispherical and disk primitives or join lines about an axis and then spin. It's a lot of work.

The markings on the aircraft are the original markings. I have not seen pictures of the current aircraft. However, the flag on the tail needs to be changed. The name given to the aircraft is Mriya, not Ruslan.
