In this course we're going to look at something a little different, creating technically accurate 3D printed parts.

Well, it's a start. The geometry looks good thus far.

thnks! well ive kept going a bit but im not sure whether ive ruined it with the flaps and wings, it looks a bit dodgy now i think.
Plus its my first effort at them so theyre not going to be gr8.

What do you think?

Thnks for the feedback

regards

Well, the wings look good, save the tips. I think you missed a bit at the tip. It looks like you did the flap part, but left out the last part of the wing. But, I could be wrong.

Other than that, the tail flaps don't look as though they belong. They could use some adjustment.
