I posted this over on the SketchUcation forum, but I thought it might be appropriate here as well. It was modeled in SketchUp, rendered in Kerkythea, and finished in Xara Xtreme 4. It's the first image I've done for fun in several years.
I found the 3-view blueprints of the H-101 Salto at the-blueprints.com. I looked for this particular glider because I've actually flown one, and it's my favorite of all the aircraft that I've been able to fly.
The first image is a Sketchup export of the finished model, above the blueprint that I built it from.
From Sketchup, I rendered it in Kerkythea, then finished it Xara Xtreme 4 (with landscape from Google Earth).
