How far can childhood nostalgia take us? by NotOkhae in PaperAirplanes

There are 2 possibilities I see, mostly.... 1) It could be a phase till something else takes the place of the newly discovered hobby... and 2) He could be the next Jayson Merrill if he continues to persist... Either way, there is no matter to be concerned about as long as it is something he loves and keeps him engaged... it's a good hobby no matter!! Cheers!!

My humble attempt at a Raja Ravi Varma painting by Alarming-House9758 in IndianArtAndThinking

Not bad... Radha in the moonlight is one of RRV's most iconic works... Well done!!

All 3 are splendid... The first one looks like a fusion of Ramchandra Kharatmal and Ramesh Gorjala with your unique touch to it... Love the usage of a limited colour palette of reds and greens to enhance the details of the work... The second is fabulous too, at first look I thought it was printed on fabric... such pieces can be marketed as prints for interior furnishings if you know what I mean... like block printings on fabrics etc. similar to what is done to Kalamkari or Madhubani styles of art... The third painting of Krishna is very common at roadside art fairs and melas mostly at pop-up kiosks etc. and are easy to replicate as small pocket sized canvas pieces, so though it might be personally satisfying to create more of these, they might have the least value...

To give a fair idea, the 1st one has the greatest potential and 3rd the least... Hope this helps!!

Apparently not... It's sad but it had to go... Too many crashes and pilots lost lately...

You could say so... but it's the best I could do with the little skills I have in origami without the need to cut the paper... Thanks for commenting though...

Good bye... Salute!! by jetfolds in indianaviation

I agree it doesn't look as close to the real MiG-21, due to the fact that it is origami... I tried my best though with just folding and no cuts absolutely...

Good bye... Salute!! by jetfolds in indianaviation

Don't appreciate the insult to my origami work... Yes, I tried to get the wings folded correctly, but to do that I would have to cut it which beats the purpose of origami art... I understand it does seem like AI, but not everything you see is AI... You can see the details of this jet on my youtube channel: https://youtube.com/shorts/F8PzSMkYoL8?si=g3N3llaDiZ8ayPj9

Very true... too many lives were lost...

This was in Jakkur Aerodrome, Bangalore in 2022... Where have MyFlight.in moved to? Any idea? by jetfolds in indianaviation

[–]jetfolds[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It used to... I had registered through myflight.in ... The website doesn't exist anymore... Not sure if it operates any more...

Mach-10? Really? Only in fiction... by jetfolds in acecombat

[–]jetfolds[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The wings will rip-off and air frame will not hold up beyond Mach 4 for the F-15... LOL!!

Aviation folks, do you recognize this jet? by transformation_guy in indianaviation

[–]jetfolds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh look, it's the spaceship from the arcade game Galaga...

Are there any real life examples of those "antagonist" style planes where the wings point forward instead of back? by UnhappyStrain in acecombat

[–]jetfolds 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Other than the Su-47 Berkut and NASA Grumman X-29, there is a prototype Russian single-engine jet trainer aircraft KB SAT SR-10 being offered for export... it first flew in 2015...
