Long story short is I work for Jundroo now as thier lead artist. I live in their area and 3d animation/design is what I went to school for. They found my portfolio online and liked what they saw, So now I'm a developer @TheDerpyDude
@Hypnoticchicken, look at where I started at the top of this page. Making good planes in this game takes practice. Keep trying to make things better, and people will notice.
@ElijtheGeat Im the lead artist, so building 3D models for the updates/new games, concept art, promotional images, really anything that involves digital art/design, I will do. I also change Philips diapers, and clean Nathans cage.
@Hypnoticchicken what i was referring to as performance was the game itself, not the planes. The more the game strays away from simple graphics, the less likely it will run good on multiple devices.
Will have to ask about that one. There is a fine balance between looks and performance, and the way color is applied right now saves a lot on the performance side. Trust me in saying this, they work very hard to bring the most fun and enjoyable experience that they can. @Hypnoticchicken
Thanks, I'm actually working at the studio with them now doing concept art and making 3D models for the up and coming games. No words can describe the high I am on right now. @Hypnoticchicken
Yeah, crazy what life can throw your way. I happened to be not too far from the headquarters, and luckily they like my art outside of this game. It's what I went to school for, so I'm a living testament to keep following your dreams no matter what life throws at you. @JacobHardy64
Yeah man, never would j have thought I would be working full time with the gang. The office is a 45 minute drive from me. It's still a bit surreal. You def will dig what's coming in the near future, and yours truly will be modeling it. @DethFromAbove
@Scriefers you will be very happy with what is coming in the propeller updates. These developers are mad scientists, and will be programming some amazing options within the new models. Don't want to ruin any surprises, but I know you will be very happy.
Haven't gotten around to rating your stuff lately, but you know it's good when others start copying your unique look as their own. Comparing you to Scriefers is like comparing DaVinci to Picasso. Both amazing in their own ways, but apples to oranges my friend. Both you and @Scriefers got to where you are by doing what makes you guys happy. End of story.
@Authros, the only thing my father in law has given me is a smoking hot wife and a car show T-shirt. That's nothing compared to a MacBook lol. Now your addiction has reached new levels, and will only get worst from here. But that means big things are on the horizon. Glad you got to drive the Bigfoot, crazy it actually works in this game. My favorite is still the tank, you have to try that one out, it can go anywhere.
Representing my city! I always love seeing the real thing sitting in Lambert Airport in all its glory. You have done STL proud with this one, good work!
This thing is crazy cool, I love the abstract builds now. The way they perform is mind boggling to me. I'm just so cookie cutter with planes, and this thing is a meat grinder.
This thing looks like a next gen fighter jet. The body shape reminds me of a predatory birds attack position when diving. Like this thing could do some High speed bombing runs.
I can't get over how perfect this is. The flying, the looks, I mean this is next level stuff. You took the bar of what is expected for a ww2 bird, and broke it over your knee. I just flew this around and admired it's beauty, and I flies great on my iPhone with medium settings! Can't wait to see more
Somehow I forgot to rate this plane the last time I flew it. I love the folding mechanisms for the wings. I must have got sidetracked like a cat, but I remember being blown away how cool this thing was. Your skills with rotators are top notch, and you should keep going with morphing designs, and sharks, or crocodile?
This is absolutely amazing, the fact you made this makes me so happy. Like playing with the shark toys in the bathtub happy. I mean, the teeth and the gills, So awesome!!!!!!!
Well demz sum mad propz. You now must create some amazing ww2 birds with your newly found superpowers. "With great propellers comes great repropability."~Socrates
Yeah that one surprised me, I have 42 notifications and gold now? Looks like there is some simpleplanes karma going around lol. Really, in due time everyone will be gold, I find it rather silly that ranking exists in this game. @hypnotoad
This is like a snowflake that you can drive. Crazy good design, very appealing to the eye. It's a joy to look at while it tears apart the sky. Also congrats on the gold!

thats pretty amazing, yo.

@Legomore, Was it necessary to rate a one star?

Thats a pretty sweet plane, ive never seen one till now, and this looks very accurate to it.
Wow, you built this on an iPhone 5c. You deserve a medal for that my friend. Simply epic.
@ElijtheGeat Thanks for the ratings and the congrats, back at you for reaching gold! You earned it bud.
@Teus Thanks friend, they were crazy enough to hire me. I brought a gun so they basically had to :).
@CorvetteCole Watch yourself :D
Trust me, if I didn't they would once they see this, which will be when I go in tomorrow and tell them to check this out.
Looks perfect, and trust this coming from plenty of time studying reference while building it. This surpasses mine on every level.
Sleek and beautiful. I love it.

Looks amazing, and learned something new thanks to this. Very unique and off the beaten path. Love your stuff as always.
Officially the first plane I have featured, and I wouldn't have it any other way. This is so perfect in so many ways. You are a master sir.
Wow, didn't think you could out do the last one, but you did. It handles just as good as the first one. Gaaaaaahhh, I love it!

You rock. @Authros
Here comes the gold!@WalrusAircraft
How did I miss this? I love the fuel truck detacher, very creative.
This blows mine out of the water, you are very talented!
You should do an updated version of this when you find the time. I still love flying this to this day.

@Authros,lol, you know the way to my heart. That comment made me genuinely happy.
I'm speechless, it's glorious(narrated by Will Ferrel).

Love the body construction and looks spot on. Very good job on this!
I second @wakescar statement, looking forward to your builds in the future.
This is amazing. Will have to experiment with parachuting payloads now. Very good and innovative work!
Well demz sum mad propz. You now must create some amazing ww2 birds with your newly found superpowers. "With great propellers comes great repropability."~Socrates
This thing is so complex it blows my mind. You truly are an artist with wings construction.
+1The looks can't get any better than this for an F-117, perfect is the only word I have to describe this.
Thanks for all the ratings, don't know what sparked that, but I appreciate it. Funny, I never noticed you did a copy of my hind.
This thing is crazy how it flies like it's floating, very entertaining. If this plane could talk all it would say is "do you even lift bro?"
Dude that cockpit is amazing looking. Loving all the tilt rotors, the next evolution is to do an osprey, Just sayin :)
Thanks man, pretty random boost in ratings I just received. Came out of no where. @Teus
