AELIM LV-01 — Autonomous Extra-Lunar Infrastructure Module
This render is part of an independent lunar infrastructure concept I’ve been developing called AELIM LV-01. The central idea is simple: if we’re going to spend the time, energy, and resources to deliver hardware to the Moon, that hardware should continue providing value long after landing.
Rather than viewing each vehicle as a single mission asset, the AELIM concept treats every landed vehicle as a permanent piece of a growing lunar infrastructure ecosystem. Each vehicle can serve different roles depending on mission needs—cargo handling, storage, scientific operations, maintenance, power distribution, communications, or future habitation.
As additional vehicles arrive, they don’t simply add capacity—they become part of an interconnected infrastructure network where each new asset strengthens the overall capability, resilience, and long-term sustainability of the lunar surface presence.
This scene depicts an active nighttime cargo operation, with an AELIM LV-01 functioning as one node within that larger lunar ecosystem.

Im working on a ridiculous scifi transport / attack aircraft, astheticly inspired by the b25. I kinda mushed that, a B1, and a C130 together and I'm starting to like how it's shaping up. Any suggestions?

Late 1970's Soviet single engine supersonic multirole fighter, Capable of reaching mach 2.4, it's quite big and thus is able to carry a variety of weapons, I'm open to any ideas/recommendations, currently still under development.

This is how I imagine the Gripen's paint job would look if Brazil wins its sixth World Cup title, just like in 2002 when there was the fifth championship, a mirrage III was painted with the colors of Brazil. It wasn't 100% made for the championship but it was used and marked the event in the escort return of the Varig plane (a Boeing 737) that was used by the national team.

Note: I did this in a bit of a hurry using colored pens, I hope you like it! :)

I have Matt, Chrome and Gloss black! Any suggesting for a new cooler color on a buzzard?

I made V-tail on the engine no. 2 so air goes Whoossshhhh... and tail never get an obstructed bending moment within the pinned structural cantilever stressed on the tail-join.

Good thing, now it will not flutter! Bad thing? It need FBW.... maybe....

(please say it will fly)

all made by me. 3D model can be seen for free in my Sketchfab

Hi everyone,

We wanted to share our latest cinematic WWII aviation animation from the studio. This project follows a high-tension narrative: a Hawker Hurricane is forced to ditch directly into brutal Force 5 seas at night, with the pilot entirely unaware that he has any hope. By absolute chance, a passing Supermarine Walrus spots the Hurricane in trouble and follows it down into the dark to stage a miracle air-sea rescue.

Everything you see was built in CGI, lit, and animated in-house and rendered out in full 4K with authentic sound design. We put a massive amount of focus into capturing the physics of the water impact in rough conditions, the main characters' expressions, the terrifying scale of the ocean at night, and the strict technical accuracy of both aircraft.

We would love to know what the community thinks of the crash sequence, our nighttime lighting, and the historical narrative!

thought this might look good, lmk what you guys think about it
