cheers arran I decided to up the detail quite a bit for a portfolio piece. The really crazy bit will be generating all the divots along every panel on the plane - I'm thinking (and hoping) a generic strip could be created and then normal mapped and placed where required

thanks mastone, hehe polycount whats that?
its about 90% instanced geometry at the minute but if this was non instanced and smoothed I think my machine would seriously start crawling

Here's an update on the engine with added struts and a bit of tidying. I've placed it in the engine bay but it might need a little resizing. I'm thinking next might be the external engine exhausts and the cylindrical radiator flaps.
