LOOKS GOOD ∼∑

Can I use this as a map in my Super Smash Bros map?

Im glad you finally finished it, the final result was worth the wait :D As i said earlier, i think the wings should be straight at first before going up. In my opinion, it makes the grey part look bulky. I honestly dont think your plane needs that on its wings. Im pretty sure itd be better if instead you had you wings all the same color but then added different liveries and no bump near the fuselage (in grey). Other than that, great job!

A bit rough and blocky but it looks like u tried

So much progress in only a few days! I love how you tilted the wings upwards, it gives it a very futuristic look. I would maybe give it a tail design to fit the wings. How about special engines too? Lastly, dont forget to change the title and the description to correct the aircraft name errors i pointed out :P

Well, first off, you mixed up two different aircrafts in the description: The C-130 Hercules and the C-5 Galaxy. Both are heavy lift aircrafts but are very different in size. In other words, the C-130 can be transported by the C-5 lol Type in "C-5 C-130" in google images and youll see some size comparisons along with one being loaded. At the moment, your airframe shape is good but cargo plane fuselages dont drop down like you did in the middle of your aircraft like such:

__________                     __________
|__|__|__|__|__________|__|__|__|__|
                    |__|__|__|__|

The main reason is for cargo purposes as the cargo bay is located inside the belly of the aircraft and lowering the roof would mean less space. In fact, most cargo plane fuselages never drop down and actually go back up almost right after the wings.

At the moment, yours looks more like a 747 than a military aircraft (but still looks good). I would recommend using profile views of a specific aircraft to model it. This is quite big and depending on its length (which i have no way to know atm) will either be a C-5 Galaxy or, my favorite, a C-17 Globemaster. Its too big to be a C-130. Search these on google/wikipedia to get some info. About the tail, it should be higher and more vertical.

The skeleton technique youre using works perfectly as i use it myself but to help you i recommend using photoshop with blueprints of the plane to plan it out, it really works. Lastly, i made a C-17 myself (its my only PMC project so far) if youre interested in checking it out. Yes this is some kind of advertising in a way but im sure you could get really good inspiration from it.

So far i cant say much since you dont have alot built yet but from what i can see, it looks promising!

P.S. Good luck in your build!
