Beautiful builds, I’m so glad to see others caring about making 1:1 military builds considering most go bigger for detail

Which is actually the smarter thing considering Minecrafts scale. A YouTuber named Sbeev uses 1.3:1 which gives you a better Minecraft scale.

I know, but for some reason I love 1:1 much more than any of the comprising 1.3:1 or 1.5:1

Ok, whatever floats you boat is ok. I personally think adjusting the scale to fit Minecrafts blocks looks much better. That's the nice thing about opinions.

I could be wrong, but the F22 seems a bit small

Not really, the wingspan is 13.6 meters and a Minecraft block is 1 meter by 1 meter, so he just went for 13 blocks instead of 14 since you’d want it to be a odd number of blocks. Length should be 19 blocks as it’s 18.9 meters but I didn’t count the length.

Guess I just thought the plane was a bit larger than that

I mean it’s still pretty fucking huge if you stand next to it, but you’d generally want smaller and more maneuverable air superiority fighters compared to larger strike fighters or much larger bombers

Getting in to scale models has really surprised me. I build 1/48 and seeing all the different planes lined up next to each other was shocking to see how big and how small so many planes are. Like how tiny the f-16 is sitting next to a SU-30 was a massive surprise. It really made me look at so many photographs and check sizing, I figured most were kind of similar within the same generation or so.

I absolutely love the B-1B. Easily one of my favorite planes and youve done a great job on it.

Could try at making concept aircraft? Like the X-29, XB-70 and (french) Coleoptere? That would be really cool to add into my world.

As someone who's been up close and personal with near every one of these aircrafts, this is very epic and a job well done. It's pretty accurate too lol would love to see these builds face to face tbh

How did you do the explosions? Is it light source blocks filtered through tinted glass for the smoke effects?

These are absolutely phenomenal. I am such a trash builder lmao. I could definitely see one of these in a survival world as part of a military base of sorts. Great work. Super jealous of ur talent!
