When Simpleplanes was still Simple...

2,010 DumbPlaneMaker  3.3 years ago

Do you remember the time you when were still using the blocks to build planes? I remember, so I wanted to share the first airliner I made on SimplePlanes with you. I had made it like 5 months ago and thought that you may be interested in my first creations. Of course it isn't perfect, but I had done my best to make it. Control like a normal plane, AG1 for emergency parachutes, AG8 for navigation lights. Have fun!

    There's something interesting about these old planes made with blocks... You can make liveries easier!
    When you use the fuselage blocks to make the fuselage, you have to add very thin layers of fuselage blocks and paint them just to make a decent livery, and that doubles the part count. Things change with these blocks: You can just paint the blocks you want to necessary colors, and that doesn't increase the part count at all. Also, the fuselage blocks take more processing time (according to my experience).
