Since I was not happy with the model from part 1 (v 1.0), I planned and redesigned legs, made various adjustments, changes.
I also wanted to improve on front window frame, made some testings with paint-overs.
So I started remodeling it, made some design info schemes, renders.
Standing position.
In liquids.
Various design info schemes.

Still will continue to improve top part, redesign wings.
I was inspired by this Feng Zhu sketch of the grasshopper. I find it bit mechanical, and I like the form of it. I wanted to go a bit further and to create a very detailed spaceship or more mechanical thing.
So I started modeling it in Sketchup.
