This striking, elegant concept aircraft model for EADS was created in several sections by additive manufacture, carefully spray painted with durable polyurethane paint systems and hand-polished to a full gloss white. Window ports and other details were applied as rubdown transfers and computer cut vinyl graphics, produced on our own in-house system.
We have made many sleek conceptual models this way; elegant, high concept speedform models are invaluable in exhibition and presentation situations where a physical creation sparks interest more than a digital printout ever can.
More details on the EADS E-Thrust can be found in an article by Wired. and a video of this concept aircraft is available on YouTube.
