A model of my personal favorite military craft, the AV-8 Harrier II jump-jet.  Modeled and rendered (crappy render as it is) in Rhino 3D with the aid of several pictures and schematics.

Note: those compressions in the wings lok much too dark.  I'll see if I can't brighten those up.

Hmm, somehow I always thought that the Harrier looked a bit different than that one... hmm...

  after reviewing my pictures and schematics again...I realized I screwed up on quite a few areas.  The general shape is right, but the dimensions of the turbines, the wings, canopy, tail, ect are off.  I'll have to fix these.

It needs downward thruster thingies. You know, those things that get to like 800 degrees C while it's hovering.

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill
