Title: Henikel He-8
Post by: 0viking0 on November 10, 2011, 01:30:18 PM: This is my newest work. First from the series of profiles. It is pretty uncommon airplane (at least from my point of view)

You can count this one as step1. Many thankies to Srecko who gave me a lot of materials.

Any feedback and suggestions would be fine. I'm not so familiar with this plane.

Oh sure. Colors are not final. Everything above water skids are in "scketch phase". I'm not sure about this vertical stabilizer. Strange shape. I'm not sure if I did that correctly.

Yes, this engine is killing me. References that you gave me are really great, but they made some changes on that engine fot this particular aircraft because on the photos, some details are quite different.

Post by: 0viking0 on December 22, 2011, 11:15:38 PM: Almost there
Title: Re: Henikel He-8
Post by: No.1 on December 23, 2011, 07:13:14 AM: So first in series is almost ready :-ok
Title: Re: Henikel He-8
Post by: Sall on December 23, 2011, 11:03:27 AM: Good. :-ok
Title: Re: Henikel He-8
Post by: 0viking0 on January 08, 2012, 02:22:28 PM: OK, these are first final variants. I'll do some checking later because there are still some details under questionmark. But now u could get the idea where this thing's going.
Title: Re: Henikel He-8
Post by: No.1 on January 08, 2012, 02:44:30 PM: This look fine to me but will take this sample and take a look later ;) Great work anyway :-ok

Title: Re: Henikel He-8
Post by: No.1 on January 11, 2012, 06:39:18 PM: Just few points but I will take deep inspection again. This is just optional variation, must refer to particular image when make profile. Subject is hard, very hard!!!
Title: Re: Henikel He-8
Post by: 0viking0 on January 11, 2012, 08:33:34 PM: Thanks. I will compare that angle with photos again.

I was aware of that exhaust, but I'm not brave enough to draw that with only few photos available. I think I'll skip that for now.

Waiting for more (if any), then I'll make adjustments.
Title: Re: Henikel He-8
Post by: No.1 on January 11, 2012, 09:18:56 PM: I have seen exhaust on one image only, so you can skip it from my point of view. Obviously not proven good in service. I will again take time and give maximum to help your amazing art!
