Thanks Man,

I'm happy with the controller so far user added image and I plan on presenting it as best as I can.

I'm really confused about where to go with this challenge. The Radio control has more visible modelling in it so it looks more impressive at first glance, but the glider's wing actually has every wing rib, spar, formers etc in it yet because of the film its not as visible. Its making me wonder if this challenge is a modelling exercise or the ability to create a "present-day object and make it as real looking as possible!"

If the latter is true then it's going to be more of a texture, shader, lighting and rendering exercise. If that's the case then the Radio doesn't need to dominate the final render.

I checked with Mike and I can post an image that's 800 x 384 which would still be 307200 pixels (same as 640 x 480) Which means I should be able to present both the glider and Radio reasonably well.

I will post some more pictures soon.
