After watching Avatar a while back, I was hooked on finding pics of this VTOL shuttle. Using cardboard, painter's tape, primer and some other knickknacks, Im almost done making my shuttle. I have decided to make the rear of the shuttle a bit more conventional with rocket thrusters and the top delta shaped wing will be reinforced with an exact cutout placed on top and secured to make the delta wing thicker and stronger. There will be vertical stabilizers but not near as big as what was in the movie. I found a curved canopy that I might use instead of the flat window pieces not sure where Im going with that, but I thought you guys and gals might enjoy a BIG shuttle.

Looking awesome man I can't wait to see the finished results. All of your other shuttles look great too.

Thanks, Im really digging the wedge shape, very simple and yet still aerodynamic. I finished putting primer on the 4 rear thrusters, they will have a cover but details will still be seen such as piping, tubing and wiring. I have to still do the top wing and finish the top spine.
I still want to do an interior cargo with cargo plane like decks. The Valkyrie is basically a supply ship. Her built in tanks and extra thrusters allow for routine visits to oribial ships and stations. |
