Sporty Spaceship
by thisnorthernboy
A little one-man speedster, based on 1930s aerobatic planes. Had to have a nice bright orange paint-job obviously.

I love that you can still see the texture from the paper here Rob. Great render!
Anyone else seeing a p-26 in space here? Only I do, and i’m loving it!
It’s pretty much a Grenville Gee Bee R1, but tweaked for space.
I wasn’t expecting a reply, and wow it really does. Keep up the good work sir!
Well if you take the time to comment… I love those pre WWII planes, weird proportions. The Gee Bee was basically an engine with wings. One of my other favourites is the Fairey Gannet, particularly the AEW version with it’s wings folded. http://cdn.airplane-pictures.net/images/uploaded-images/2011/8/21/152334.jpg
