This was done early 2006, from my last days @ Mirage Post. I wanted to create an image of a japanese WWII plane. There were a lot of ‘em to pick, but I picked the Ki-84 Nakajima Hayate a.k.a “Franks” because it is huge and has character.
This is also the first work which I hand painted the texture from zero.
The image was well received in deviantArt and was given Daily Deviation 
There are 2 versions, the color and the toned version.
Done in 3dsmax 7, rendered in Vray
