Piper Warrior III

Hi Guys,

I picked up a commission(!) to do a student pilot's mount as a Christmas present.

Here's the linework.

Grubby.

Re: Piper Warrior III

I've done a few civil aircraft Grubby and it was a very painful experience. You have my sympathies.

Re: Piper Warrior III

Congrats on the commission, im not sure even that could lure me into the realms of GA profiling tho.

The one and only Piper type that I might consider some time is the Enforcer.

Re: Piper Warrior III

Money is money, GFR! I'll profile elephants if you pay me just peanuts.

He's a collection of spare parts from Mr Pipers' catalogue and a close up of the fin.

I really do work backward compared to most of you guys, don't I.

It's different from my workflow for sure. As I progress in profiling, one of the biggest challenges I have is making sure my template can be easily modified to create minor and also major variants of the type. It's a bit of a "production-oriented" way of doing things I guess. Anyway, your results are fine, so stick to that method.

BTW, how much do you charge for an 4-year old elephant viewed from starboard?
