CESSNA 172 WIP

its spanish
btw, the rivets are realy something like 20% too dark, thus looking much bigger. They are quite visible on real aircraft, but not as 3d objects (your rivets have too much depth). Otherwise the drawing is fantastic.

Looking good, Ugo, as always!

I'd leave the rivets. To me it's like scale modelling, the rivets and panel lines are ALWAYS overscale, but they just add so much character to the finished item. Take them off and you get a very bland subject indeed. Rivets tend to show up a lot on gloss paint, too.

I mean, if you want a photo, take a photo! What we do here are interpretations of the subject, designed to show it off in the best way and make it look good.

The US military did some interesting schemes on their 172 trainers. Lots of daglo panels.

That wouldn't be this one would it? The rivets on it are actually quite prominent. Done for Supah some time ago, but he seems to have been distracted by 104's. I don't normally do civil aircraft.

I don't think you ever sent me the finished article Otter Care to share?

It's a revenge for having the Americans take the manufacturing rights to the MS.760 Paris. The first VLJ, made in France. Half a century later, there is only one left in France that is still flying, the rest being mostly in the hands of wealthy yankees, some of which are considering building new ones.
