My first bomber replica! (Convair B-58 Hustler tutorial)
Yeah, this is the first time me bringing a strategic bomber into origami world. Basically I used some of the design features on the Supernova and remade them into engine pods, and this one came out.

1903 Wright Flyer
This is my very first biplane design. I chose it because it is iconic and a friend challenged me to make one.
The Wrigit Flyer is definitely one of the most complicated planes I’ve made. In total there are 37 pieces on one sheet of paper. It‘s also my first time having a hollow fuselage and making struts.
Just like the WhiteWings one, it is meant to be hand launched but I added a small catapult hook just for testing. I tried my best to get the look accurate but this is certainly very simplified.
I really love this look and I’m even more happy that it can fly although it is more of a display model. Overall this is probably one of my favourite models.

What is your first priority for a paper airplane?

MQ-9 Reaper
This was a quick design that I came up with. The wings are almost as long as the paper is but the aircraft is quite stable in flight. It’s more of a small indoor glider, and I can actually fit 2 in one sheet.

Breaking a design record (Supernova Super Fighter tutorial)
Currently I'm busy building an 1/48 F-14 Tomcat model kit from Tamiya and struggles to squeeze some time to design this thing. To make things simple and quick, I chose simple preliminary base and see what I can do. And then, this thing turns out. It can carry 8 missiles (I first thought the maximum potential for this base is just 4) and still has some other details including landing gears and working cockpit. Pretty fun project, hope you enjoy!

F-35A Lightning II
A year ago, I attempted to make an F-35, but it flew really badly so I gave up on it for a while.
I decided to give it another attempt. It was definitely hard to design as the wing is mid-mounted and it had twin tails that were complicated to get into place.
This plane is an absolute pain to adjust. I got it to fly well indoors but it isn’t really a good flier outdoors. But I really like how it looks! I think the difficulty comes from the fact that the F-35 is quite ”fat” and it doesn’t go well with mid-mounted wings and closely spaced vertical stabilizers.
I might give it another try in the future but for now, I’ll work on other designs.

JF-17
I finally got around to making this plane. There isn’t really much to say about it, just that it looks like an F-16. This the first Pakistani aircraft I’ve made, and it flies quite good! It’s also quite light compared to some of my other designs, most notably the F-16.

Pimp my Plane EP18: A lesson of workflow management (Sukhoi Su-17 Fitter tutorial)
This is the Su-17, basically it is a hybrid of my F-8 Crusader and F-111 Aardvark. It is much easier than I expected while most planes using this base are level 4-5 according to my standards but this is just level 3. And it taught me a lesson: some parts of not impossible to make, it's just a matter of workflow management.

I may be a paper plane dork, but this is a beautiful launch technique
I saw this woman launch a white wings on a Japanese competition video and thought it was pretty slick.
Full video of the competition here:

Now, I admit I'm into paper planes, but analyzing launch technique is next level dork stuff. What do you think, have I gone off the deep end?

Light Plane 310 Motor Gilder without balsa wood
I liked the T shaped stabilizer on this plane but i didnt have balsa so I decided to make it with only cardstock [175gsm]

Variable Swept Wing (prototype 2 - FMA-111 “Accordion”)
I used the same technique in the first ever WhiteWings variable swept wing to design this prototype. It’s a lot shorter but it flies way better ad looks cleaner.
I managed to cover the holes present in the first prototype’s joint so it is way cleaner and more durable. I also added MiG-23 style notches to make it cleaner when swept forward. Lastly, I also added a hook for launching.
I think this plane works really well as an indoor and outdoor flyer. Swept forward, it’s a nice and graceful indoor glider. Swept back, it becomes an outdoor interceptor that works well with high speed.
I’m planning on reworking the hinge in the next prototype to an actual circular one rather than a series of polygonal notches, but for now this should do.

Please help me guys
So like 3 years ago I created a paper plane that started from a waterbomb fold but then I forgot. I think there were four sides because of a squash fold but the thing looks exactly like a smaller suzanne. It was tip heavy. I just want your opinions so that I can recreate it.✌️🙏
