The project consist of designing a short haul electric aircraft. Opted for a cargo airplane, since passengers can be grounded but goods still needs to be moved around.
Practicing to sketch airplanes
Requirements
Rear ramp door
4 motors with propellers
Around 20 m of total outer dimension and 20 m of wingspan (tip to tip)
Small wingtips on the wings
High wing is preferable because of landing on unpaved rough terrains
What makes it look modern?
Moodboard
“I did ideations in Photoshop of parts of the aircraft and produced plenty of options for each, specific element. After I had a solid idea on what the client wants, I made three sketches from different views of the aircraft.”
Autodesk Alias modelling
During the modelling phase I did different iterations for parts of the aircraft. This kind of method turned out to be the fastest way of producing new ideas.
