Description
Older work done for a sci-fi novel. Done without any 3d so the perspective is a bit off. I was trying to make an realistic design of the machine, hope you'll like it.Just photoshop a and wacom.

Reminds me of Fallout with the Brotherhood of Steel

...no 3D? Β -Β wow! I really wish I could draw like this!Β Perspective looks still o.k. to me as usually one concentrates on the machine in the foreground anyway

Great Picture RadoJavor.
By the way, if you interested to know, the Consortium had VTOL like this in the 'Act of War High Treason' RTS game.

WOW! Amazing art work as usual dude, congratulations!

Very interesting Studie of a possible Quadrocopter.Β

The military needs this. It would kick BUTT.

I want one! Epic paintwork, love the design too.

Way to go. As usual, you turned out a stellar piece.

Could be Just the perspective but I keep thinking that the rear nacelles are mounted a little to far forward and inward than they should be to make a safe transition to level flight. It looks like there could be a risk that the rotars could strike the fuslage, sponsons or winglets during transition or in level flight.Β
The rear gun would be completely useless in level flight, unless it had some tight locks on it - mind you there are quite a few Helo's that have to have very restrictive traverse locks on the guns as well (you don't want to shoot down your own bird)
I also think that the rear rotars would have a few problems in level flight due to the airflow and engine exhaust from the forward engines (unless they shutdown the rear pair in level flight.
Still it is an awesome design and a great picture (as always) and gives pleasure to look at it (dispite my pedantic niggles)

thank you. Its a really helpful comment. I could redo the design now.Β

over compensation at its worst ever...WOOOOOOOOOT!!!!

It looks like a cross between a V-22 and an MH-53

Exactly; interesting combination! While I don't know much about areospace engineering, it was a good call to make something look like it designed with function in mind over appearance, ironically. Very well done.Β

It looks really realistic - I'm sure I'd recognize one of these vessels from your picture if I ever came to stumble over one (which is not likely to happen though

I like this. Why the addition of outrigger wings instead of mounting pylons to the shoulder-wings which already host the engines? Presumably weight... but more importantly, reminiscent of Mi-24.

Balance prolly. It's really important for VTOL aircraft to have near-perfect balance or you're going to run into some nasty problems. If you take a look at attack helicopters, you'll fin the pylons are always directly below the main rotor, the center of lift and the center of weight. For a four-engine monster like this, the center of lift/thrust would be in the middle. And now you know, and knowing is half the battle.

True that mate - I normally work with AFVs, not aircraft, and CoG requirements are of a different nature there. I was thinking that you could mount freefall/guided bomb racks to the aft outriggers and DF ordnance to the fore, but of course some mission profiles wouldn't call for one of the two and then you'd be unbalanced. Rado does a good job yet again.

Very powerful image, the brute power of this machine clearly evident. Nothing wrong with the perspective, and the whole image looks great in 2D.

Oh! It looks heavy & powerful!!
I like that metallic texture~ It's cooooool~

Looks very "Ghost in the Shell", the armoured tilt-rotors in that. I really like this. Spectacular work as always.

Remind me of C&C Generals: Zero Hour.
If you played as the Air Force General, you'll know exactly what I'm talking about.

That thing is armed to the teeth! I feel sorry for the targets.

Quite an awesome picture.
That Quadri-rotor looks like it's based a little on the CH-53 Sea Stallion family of helicopters if im correct. The general design at least suggests that. But yeah it looks quite good. The light effects and the background scenery are superb!

its based on the ch-53 like development of this helicopter.

hehe then my guess was correct. thanks for the confirmation. Good luck with your future projects.
