Good start Xander-0 - I definitely think that the 'flying backwards' concept will make your idea more interesting. The only area that I am not sure about is the uneven shape at the front of your model. Good luck in the challenge.


By the way, if you haven't already seen it, you might want to check out this japanese film called Returner:

Though you do not see them much, there are a couple of robot planes, i think near the end of the movie.

There aren't really any original ideas in this film, but if you are looking for something a little different than than the usual Hollywood action film, this is certainly worth renting.
