Description
Just a little more of SpaceShipOne. I did a few small changes, and added the Gliding Home view.

Amazing modeling work! A great tribute to the SpaceshipOne crew. Hopefully we will be seeing alot more of this craft in the coming years, who knows it might just be the craft we go for a space trip in? excellent job. very realistic.

The top image so good I thought it was a photo, truly good work and I bet you can sell a few of your model so good luck with that.

Really nice modelling work and a lovely render. I am impressed and more than a little jealous. :)

Amazing........ more history in our lifetime...

Really nice.... Do you have it moddeled in such a way so that the wings feather the way the real one re-enters?

Thanks all. I too was pleasantly surprised when the Gliding Home render came out as nice as it did. Talley: Yes, mostly. The parts that get feathered are all separate and as such could be folded up. However, this image was posed after an actual Scaled Composits photo, taken from the chase plane. As you seem to know, the feather position is only used during the actual reentry, and then this config is reassumed.

Beautiful, beautiful work... any chance we can request a render in flight with a vast breathtaking landscape disappearing into the horizon? Never hurts to ask... :o)

This is a very beautiful model, really sweet. The gliding home render is superb. A fitting tribute to this great plane.
