The last one was blessedly straightforward. The one before that was something of a nightmare. THIS one looks ready to put them all to shame with respect to complexity and hair-pulling.
Go on, guess what this is. I dare ya.
UPDATE: Help any?
Update (y’all ain’t even close yet):
UPDATE: Y’all are off by a metric mile so far…
UPDATE:
UPDATE: IMO, progressing to *awesome*
UPDATE: Almost done with the basic shape.
UPDATE: Basic hull is done. Has been done for a while, actually. But when it came time to join all the little panels into one contiguous sheet…. there were annoying, virtually microscopic mismatches between edges that caused considerable headache. But nevertheless, it got hammered into shape. Now I get to start working on the engines & stuff. Goodie.
UPDATE: AAAARRRRGH
This looks little different from the previous update. However, there is an important difference: instead of an infinitely thin “sheet,” the fuselage is now a solid of roughly consistent wall thickness. This is NOT something that Rhino does automatically, or even well… it was a full day of fighting and brute-forcing the thing into shape.
UPDATE: heh.
Now with forward engine modules.
UPDATE: Now with ducts.
UPDATE:
