Well actually I have not yet added the final texturing, I just gave it a temp texturing and lighting, thats all.

But after work tonight I will get you a pic without shadowing.

Thank you..but the cockpit, I mean the canopy, was just not right, it looked odd.

So I redid...I think it looks allot better. Next i will be doing the interior of the cockpit, low poly stuff.

I also have some great idea for the Sol Fleet..hehe

Okay, I've waded in with a couple of comments on Kborak's mig145, so I might as well fire a comment or two your way as well, since it appears to be a joint effort (collaboration)

I absolutely *love* the scaloping in the fuselage at the sides of the canopy, the improved view etc.

The new canopy looks great, but the previous had a stronger look.
The original had echo's of an F-14's canopy, where as this looks very FW-109 from WWII,

but my chief concern with *both* the original *and* this new thinner framed canopy, is that the front face still seems a little too abrupt; the angle is too sharp.
With all the organic curve and smooth surfaces and long nose, this canopy angle sticks out like a VW bug windscreen, IMHO the front panel's angle needs to be shallower, sloping furthet forward.

To be honest, you claim that the engines were modelled on the F/A-37s from the movie Stealth, well I think this bird looks better than the ones they used!

Cheers.
