Fokker D.XXI Netherlands

Description

The Fokker D.XXI (D.21) fighter was designed in 1935 for use by the Royal Netherlands East Indies Army (KNIL) air service. As such it was designed as a cheap but rugged small plane, which had respectable performance for the time of conception.

This Fokker D. XXI was flown by the Dutch Army Air Force (Luchtvaartafdeeling) May 1940. They saw much action before succumbing to the German invasion.

This piece was created in Illustrator CS and is entirely vector.

The shading was rendered using the blend tool between different vector shapes, and a some use of the gradient and transparency tools.

Interesting little fighter. It still had a fair amount of wood in it's construction and of course, the fixed landing gear.
