Yeah i think so too

Looks excellent so far!

About 2 years ago I was attempting to design the once proposed 747X Super Stretch, but with a lack of time and knowledge it pretty much fell through.

If this is a first attempt, then subsequent aircraft are going to be brilliant

Very, very nice! I know this is in a very early stage, but can I suggest some stuff?

-The upper deck seems a little liw. Might want to raise it just a little.
-I think the tail should go a little further back too.

Don't get this wrong, your model is very nice. Just thought you might like some advice.
Oh, and by the way, the website www.747.newairplane.com may be useful.

[RIDZ_YSSY]

Cant wait for the -800 looks great!

[Ubeans2001]

I wonder how the engines will sound....Boeing says they'll be quieter than the 400's engines.

Me trying to land a 727:

[93Matt93]

thanx for all comments

new wings and engine and stuff, ready to be animated:) :





someone knows to animate in gmax??  

[Jebus]

From what I saw on the boeing site, the engine "spikes" are more rounded than yours. Could you possibly improve on that?

I think the wings will flex like you see in the pictures in the air, so maybe make them at a normal hieght and add the flex is as an animation. Makes it more real.
