wow, this U-2 looks impressive:thumb:
the contrast between black and the lines is great, this will be an eye-candy in every collection
You´ve done a great job Paragon, and... it was your first step to do twin engined or bigger planes, hope the Canberra and the Vulcan will follow:idea:;-)

About the MIGS: hmm, you nearly did them all, maybe the MIG-9, the first USSR jet, built about 1000 pieces, will complete it; maybe the Jak15 or 23 would be a great supplement

have a great week-end

Well, with one of the great American spy planes done, its time to move on to another, possibly better known than the U-2, and the fastest jet aircraft ever built: thats right, the SR-71.

Yes, I know there are already plenty of free models of this plane out there, but I wanted one that was smaller and more simple. It should at least be pretty easy to design. Expect pictures of the prototype tonight, I feel good about this one.

The U-2 looks FANTASTIC sign1sign1sign1sign1sign1sign1sign1

I agree - FANTASTIC. Gotta get home and build one!

Along with SR-71, could you also do the A-12 and SR-71B trainer?
Also, I just finished your Lightning, I'll post pictures later

 

[Paragon]

I can definitely do the A-12, and probably the YF-12 too. I was thinking of doing the M-21 with D-21, but I can't really find any decent blueprints of it. As for the SR-71B, I've never seen that variant, but how different can it really be? The SR-71 was a two-seater anyway...

SR-71 B

Not great looking, but I know where to make the changes:

Considering how FAST your designing them, I consider these pretty darned amazing. Nice job!

i beleive the sr-71 is a singleseater with a 2 seater made for training purposes.

 

[Paragon]

No, the SR-71 is a two-seater. The second seat was not equipped for piloting though. The SR-71B has an elevated second cockpit (the two aren't attatched) for a pilot trainee, above where the second seat would be on the typical SR-71.

So, expect the YF-12, A-12, M-21 with D-21 drone, SR-71, and SR-71B.

Here are some images of the D-21 prototype:

For some reason I couldn't send them to CGutzmer, but here they are:

I sent him links though, so he should be able to upload them all to the download section as well.

nicely done!! thank you!

 

[Paragon]

Alright, next is the V-22 Osprey. I'm going to go ahead and build the M-21 with D-21 first, and maybe the SR-71 as well. In the meantime, has anyone else built the U-2 yet?

 

[Paragon]

Finished M-21 with D-21. The A-12 looks practically identical.

50% of the U-2 is done, the single groups. Tomorrow I`ll finish it, and the day after I will send pictures...
Thanks for your great work, Paragon

m-21 looks realy good!

 

[Triop]

Great job Paragon, I admire the speed in your designing, do you use 3-d views to build and "line" your models ?


I have one for the list btw : f-5

I'd love 2 build one in your designing style.
Keep up the good work !

(never mind the stupid question sign1 )
