Nah, the whole plane thing at the con is yesterdays news.

Abrahams M! - The new black!

Imagine the scene... Tank Town... Peak time... Everyone in a panic because there's a Tiger sat on a ridge somewhere behind a spawn. Lancs over head divebombing. Then along come 50 drunk guys in Texas. All wearing desert paint.

That, or...



Or why not go the whole nine yards and cover all aspects of the game;

Il-2 with a pair of TF-34s and a GAU-8 carrying 1,300 rounds of combat mix in each wing.  What's not to like?  Wouldn't even really need to do a lot of remodeling.

Might need a whine filter...

Maximizing Opportunities...

Why build wierd models like RV8s and other similar
subjects when something more enduring can be made.

The way I see it, HTC would be better served if they
use their time modeling a subject for the CON that can
be used on future projects.

For example, rather than making a flying rocking chair
armed with sidewinders, why not model an F-86 Sabre jet?



Then next year do an F9F, the next year a MiG-15...before
you know it you'll have a stable of Korean war aircraft
that can be used in another arena.  Wouldn't this attract
more subscribers interested in other periods besides WW2?

Anyway, if it were me, I would build models for the CON that can
be used down the road for other uses rather than a one-time
use at the CON.  That would take scarce modeling time
and turn it into an investment for the future and not waste it
on a disposable subject.  Why waste the time?...invest it!

Waffle said there is a bug with those darn windmills. They get a large rpm and start flying around the place. Think we just found out what the new weapon is!
