4,485 ramjet  8.7 years ago

i have been working on a 1913 Deperdussin racer with floats but its been a pain so i thought i might take the floats off and post it to get some feedback. i know its missing alot of detail and the landing gear is way off but its a work in progress after all so tell me what you think of it so far

    I thought this was very cool. It flies well and is relatively fast.
