I can but gape in absolute awe at your astonishing talent and incredible design sense in adding those lovely spats to your latest profiles, Mr Vieira!

Spats are known to be the ultimate in sophisticated aerodynamics!

Thank you!!!

Yes, I thought you might like those ... ;)
And I think you will enjoy also some two more I am doing (perhaps for the GB)...

Hello
The Junkers Ju-85 Jäger was one of the first aircrafts of the new Luftwaffe and also the first monoplane fighter of that service after its rebirth.
The Ju-85 aircraft completed its flight program in 1932 and was one of the last Junkers aircraft to use its signature corrugated metal.
The Ju-85 was relegated to training and support roles in the late 1930's when newer types entered service.

Y'know I was really grumpy from a sleepless night until I saw your Ju-85 and those lovely spats! Corrugated, too! Talk about the cherry on top!

Thanks for the comments.
It has been a great fun to do the corrugated metal aircraft; perhaps I will do some more in the near future.
This aircraft could also be a forerunner to the stuka... ;)

JP: Love your Ju-85 Jägers! The more corrugations the better! The Jäger somehow reminds of the Stuka and the A50 Junior at the same time ;)!

The Jager, we can see it as a forerunner to the Stuka.

Inspired by you, JP, I considered drawing a (simplified) corrugated-Mustang, but I am not sure how to do: are you sure the lines have the same distance between them, as well when the panel is vertical and when it turns to almost horizontal (top and bottom of fuselage)? I thought the distance would decrease in the second way.

I thought the distance would decrease in the second way.

I think that, due to relative small area of the lateral fuselage, it would be no major differences between the lines; Although if you decrease the distance between the lines in the top and the bottom of the lateral fuselage, that would surely add to the illusion of volume.

I hope to see it soon :)

Here is the principle of my analysis, João... I am going to adapt it to a Mustang.
Thanks again for the idea!

Well, you were very right: there is almost no difference with equidistant lines...
(and your drawing were a million times better, taking care of shadows...) :)


EDIT: improved view with more regular lines, sorry:

Hello Tophe
Thank you for the designs: very interesting.
The difference between the lines would be greater in larger aircraft.

Those are gorgeous RAF birds.  The Eagles are quite tempting.  What wing did you use as inspiration for that strike variant?
