I feel like challenging myself to do a living airplane version of certain model of airliner and maybe private jets that my living plane style might have difficulty translating to.

So yea, I was wondering how well my living airplane style would translate to certain type aircraft, the Douglas DC-9 and its successors is one of the aircraft I would like to see how it would look in my living airplane style.

A living DC-9 as well as its more modern counterpart, the MD-80/90 and the 717 is somewhat tricky to make in my living plane style because they have really small windshield panels relative to their size, combined with the fact that there is really limited space between the windshield and the door, so I couldn’t enlarge the windshield too much, as a result, they have relatively small eyes compared to other airliners, And as you can see there is no space left between the door and the windshield.

They also have nose gear that located very close to the nose cone, leaving no space for the mouth, But I solved that issue without much difficulty by moving the nose gear away from the nose cone using one of the magic spell from Photoshop - the Polygonal Lasso tool to cut out the nose gear and drag it away from the nose cone to make room for their mouth.

I know it's MD-82 photo but at least it gets the point across and shows how close the nose gear is to the aircraft's nose cone.

But still, I'm quite pleased with the result, I can still sense the cuteness radiating from these guys, Hope you enjoy it!!

The DC-9-10 series is also known by the nickname Baby 9s due to them being the shortest of the McDonnell Douglas DC-9 variant.

I especially love the TWA one - as the airline had its main hub in my city when they were in business... (I live in St. Louis) - But they all are very cute

No problem!

I do like mad dogs, they're interesting, but they are not really my favorite type of aircraft, but these are adorable!!

Thanks again, I might going to make some more living plane arts of jetliners that are not Boeing, Airbus or Embraer this year because i thought it would be interesting to see other type of jetliners in my living plane style.

Yeah, are you planning to make Irkut Mc-21, Comac C919, and others as living aircraft?

Very well job done! As with what I said earlier, your living plane style fits almost any plane model out there! Keep up the good work
Why not consider drawing the BAe146 or some other cute plane?

Thank you very much Cruz! 

I think turning a BAe 146 into a living plane would be actually quite easy, though position of their nose gear will have to be edited to be farther away from the nose, just like the DC-9, so that their nose gear door will not get in the way where their mouth are.

I might going to draw or edit images of aircraft like VC-10, HS-121 Trident, De Havilland Comet, Convair 880/990 or Sud Aviation Caravelle into a living plane sometime in the future, all of these planes have windshield design that makes them potentially challenging to draw/Photoshop in my living airplane style.
