O-117 Dragonfly Ornithopter

Had a really fun time with this one, learned a few things about rendering and sub-d modelling in Blender.
Another concept inspired by Dune, but this time I wanted to create something original with the dragonfly ornithopter concept present in the movie, so I changed the look to fit a more near-futuristic military vehicle. I also wanted the aircraft to express a bit more of its insectoid nature, so I imagined a way for it to perch on vertical and angled surfaces like a dragonfly would do.
The scale model kit style presentation is just for the fun of it, and because I like dioramas!
