Flickr won't let me direct-link the images, but there are some nifty Luft46-ish fighters, tailsitter VTOLs, aerodynes and other machines.

Rather than start a new post, I elected to add to this one. I agree that Cutangus is a great artist and designer. To further illustrate this I produced a solid wood model based on his STOVL craft. I did not copy it perfectly, so I decided to dress it up as the prototype aircraft may have looked like.

Very nice model!  Here's the art that appears to have inspired it:

Yes indeed. It just begged to be made in 3D.
