I'd write something about this design but it's better to let your imagination go wild with this one.
Seaborne S.1921, by me
The engine isn’t shaped properly but still really happy with this
C-177 Zeus by me!
it’s a remake of the model at the end! (Made in 2021)

Perhaps the biggest Cargo plane?
Lore - The CA-2M Dragon Starlifter is a absolutely gigantic aircraft thats almost half the size of the a super carrier, the plane is capable of carrying 20 Black Serpent MBTs (2 platoons) including ammunition, fuel, crew, and support assests. This plane was a part of Ka'ak Nal's expansion over the northern gulf, capable of carrying far more assets than any other in service aircraft and able to cruise for over 14 hours straight at max thrust. The Starlifer is however a massive unenumerable target, it MUST be exclusively used in occupied airspace or at least in a low intensity conflict zone with escort. Only 3 Dragon Starlifters have ever been made, one is still in its original configuration, one named "Starfire" had been armed with Cruise missiles, 155mm artillery, Autocannons, miniguns, and air to air missiles, the last one had been turned into a flying hotel named "Starsong" used exclusively as a show of power at diplomatic missions.
Notes -
This aircraft is ACTUALLY carrying 20 MBT "Analogs" in game, each weighing 60 tons and are the same dimensions as the actual MBT.
The MBT was made in the game "Sprocket"
This aircraft using 12 of the most powerful ULTRA turbofan engines

XFA-170P "Flameberge"
The XFA-170P "Flamberge" - A prototype aircraft designed by the Nation of Ka'ak Nal for an export competition, this plane competed for a Lumarian contract for a strike fighter capable of being stored and flying among the mountain passes on their border with The Kingdom of Zoryia.
The Flamberge was a extremely compact light fighter with a above average armament for its small stature, this aircraft however was extremely unstable both on the ground due to its small gap between the landing gear making turns at high speeds dangerous, and at high speeds during turns the aircraft can roll over which although not deadly can become deadly during a dogfight or during low altitude maneuvers through the mountain passes.
This plane was armed with a 23mm chaingun next to the cockpit, and 7 hardpoints throughout the craft which can carry a mix of IR, ARH, and Rocket assisted glide bombs. The craft had a short range radar array in the nose, along with a internal laser pod in bellow that, the aircraft comes with a refueling probe however it wouldn't see much use if The Dutchy of Lumaria accepted it into service as they lack any refueling tankers

A concept for a flying house & garage plane I designed. I call it the Air-V.
Swordfish postwar liveries by Gregory Sainz and Erick Norberg (a.k.a. ViggenXFiles)
The Swordfish is the titular fictitious aircraft of the first three "Blake & Mortimer" comic books "Le Secret de l'Espadon", which narrate how WWIII was started in 1946 by a military dictator who took control of Tibet and secretly built-up industrial capabilities in the Himalayas while waiting for the major powers to exhaust each other during WWII before lauching a massive worldwide attack.
Within the context of the story, the Swordfish is the MacGuffin that is instrumental in defeating those occupying forces. It is described as a nuclear-powered hypersonic penetrator equipped with nuclear rockets and able to overwhelm any existing air defenses of the time.
Although it is not well-known it has its core of dedicated enthusiasts and, back in 2009, a duo of 3D artists (Gregory Sainz and Erick Norberg) designed several post-WWIII liveries for the Swordfish by imagining its operational history in several national air forces.
