plane shapes in AH
« on: September 12, 2009, 12:18:40 AM »
Yanno .. I gotta tell yas.. the new plane shapes look *great* :)

The Corsair really brings out how much game environments have changed since 'back in the day'
..the cowling is finally 'round' and the shape matches all the bends and curves.

Wtg art doods .. cant wait to see what the next 10 years are like!

GE did a lot of the art for AW and other 3d art work.



So a great artist pointing out how good a job HTC great artists are doing is saying something !

Very good, gotta say AH outshines all similiar competition when it comes to physical aircraft shape, as compared to actual pictures.

Ok, the Commission thing was a joke, and GE, I love your art work. Its true that a great artist admiring HT's work is something. <S> To you both!
