Britten-Norman Islander

138 XtraHappy  8.9 years ago

*THIS IS VERSION 2, VERSION 3 HAS SLIGHT AESTHETICAL CHANGES* Decided to try and actually make a replica of a real life aircraft today. The Britten-Norman BN-2 Islander is a 1960's British Light Utility Aircraft, regional airliner and cargo aircraft (Thanks Wikipedia). First heard of it on GTA San Andreas where it was called the Beagle. She is a bit nose heavy and slow but still looking good by my standards.

*P.S: This is version 2 - fixed the front end to make the nose prettier and fixed the issue of it drifting to the left on takeoff. Also made the tail wings (sorry, I don't know their proper name) squarer and slightly bigger.

Enjoy! :)
