Description Original concept jet modeled in Cinema 4D and Carrara Pro rendered with Cinemas AR3 .

The Whitcomb area rule, also called the transonic area rule, is a design technique used to reduce an aircraft's drag at transonic and supersonic speeds, particularly between Mach 0.75 and 1.2.
Thanks for stopping by . Michael

This picture conveys a great feeling of motion. I like the texturing on the plane and the subtle purples in the clouds too. Great job!
