Low poly DC3 for gliding simulator - Ramjet - 12-17-2015

Have a look to one of the most heavy tow planes, built at more than 12000 units, the famous DC3.

Starting with a cylinder (16) to get an accurate airfoil (Naca 2215 at the root to Naca 2206), you obtain a perfect wing with few extrusions. The fuselage comes with a cylinder (16) as for engines. Some difficulties occur with the cockpit and the undercarriage. No difficulties come with rudder and stabilizer.

The only problem is the junction between wing and fuselage. Solved by cutting out the path of the junction on the wing and the path onto the fuselage. A simple "Bridge" between these 2 non-planar faces, 3 "Flow Connect" and a little bit of "tweaking" give a fair result.

This DC3 is less of 1500 poly

Looks fine, good and clean mesh. Are you going to texture it? Smile

Looks nice. I hope to see it completely.
