Description My entry into theΒ FCAI Martian Aero Races , hosted on the Sketchup Overdrive group.Β 

It was a nice change of pace making this racer, as I usually make models associated with the military in some way. Though habits never die, as I included the military in the backstory of the Spitfire, along with naming this racer after the British Spitfire from WW2. I can't help it!

Designed and modeled in Sketchup; rendered in Kerkythea; Inkscape for presentation.

It reminds me of the Walking Tank from Advanced Warfare.

Ah yeah, the T-600 Titan. I loved the design of that tank!

Thanks a lot! I took some time to think about how it should land. I was going to with wheels but that seemed to generic, so I decided to use the vanes instead as landing gear.

it looks like it would be great in the canyons, where it can vary its engine angles and throw itself in all directions!

Nice! I can see the vanes shifting and tilting as it takes turns and other maneuvers!Β

That's exactly what I had envisioned for them!
