Description
This is a super duper old model I once built as a Carrara forum challenge. The challenge was to build it in 20 minutes. So this what I got from scratch in 20 minutes (sans the lettering).
I resurrected it a long time ago and made this version of it (which used more realistic lighting and the hoakie sky backdrop for the floor reflection).
It's a dorky image but one that I have a personal love for. I was surfing around today and found it on my hard drive from about 1000 years ago (I think this render is from Carrara 2).
Anyway, enjoy it if you want to.

Ah, an ol' balsa flyer... One of the great grand-daddys of todays foamies. Of course things have come a long way with the introduction of depron, micro-servos and neodium motors, LiPo batteries, and full micro-circuit R/C control. Might have to pay homage by making a foamie when Carrara 8 finally comes around.
cool
plain, but great, smart modeling! cool!
Sweet!! I remember these. :)
Thanks for sharing this - it brings back fond memories!
