3 brilliant microscale planes

I am not a huge fan of microscale but I think that the following planes show ingenuity

 

1) from Lego "Learn with Lego: numbers, counting", scholastic 

This is my favorite due to color scheme and the engines.  I don't know how you can make such A jagged model look so neat....

2) Sean Kenney

Even winglets on the plane!  No page numbers, just alphabetical.

3) from the lego ideas book, penguin random house

Amazing how 3 plates, a beam with holes and studs creates windows.  Also I like the approach to engines, a cone, a head piece, and a 1x1 with hole and head piece.  Amazing how 3 approaches, preset visual assumptions all combine to create separate approaches to the same object.
