Description
The Impetus Nuclear Airliner was a proposed plane of the future powered by two atomic engines.
Fortunately it came out in 1959 only as a sleek plastic model kit by Aurora Company just for 98 cents.
Here is a sort of "family shot" from the retrofuture of an Impetus refuelling in a South African airport during the first '70.
Rendered in Bryce 4 and postproduced in Photoshop.

Duo, Your ability to mix 3D model into the real is amazing. The lighting is prefect. Bravo. Oddly I built the Aurora version when I was 10. It didn't look as good as yours. 5+++
Excellent post on this render! Your lighting technique is astonishing! Nice work my friend!
This makes me think of "The Thunderbirds" first movie. Very good.
Outstanding !
Cool pic it fits in perfect.
Boy, this looks like a photo. Amazing realism. Nice work!
Your composite images make it hard to tell where the 3D model ends and the real photo starts. Excellent!!!!
Nice work, it looks so natural. Me likes!
