Is this a (bad) joke, or what?

Nope - it's a good looking (in WBIII's own peculiar way (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)) Spitfire (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif).
Go away Juzz - lotsa people waited over a year for this, let them have their (WBIII's own peculiar) fun (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif).

Is that actual graphic, or a pic of a plastic model with comoputer generated background? (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)

Try this link and tell me what you think. Look at ALL the pics please. Have ALL the relevant facts before you slam something.

That Spit still looks fake. Looks like someone cut out a picture and pasted it into the terrain. Where's the lighting effects? Or aren't there any?

cabby, now I see that the other marques are just as badly done. Yellow spinners? That's a new one on me...
-
Looks to me like same ol' same ol' just a little different. Mirrored paint schemes? Purple/blue roundels. And do they have a co-pilot facing backwards? Why is there a freaking head rest BEHIND the armor plating?
No moving control surfaces.
You aren't getting away with a much better graphical representation there.

Sorry I prefer this one!

AKSeaWulfe, have a look at the AH Typhoon head armour; it has a headrest behind it too! (Oops?!) No moving control surfaces? Huh? Look again.

Cabby c'mon - they are not better! Well, at least they've changed the paintjob. 3-bladed prop is still there, oil radiators still oversized etc.
Why the masses aren't impressed? Because current AH (quite old for that matter) Spitfire incarnation looks better, current terrains (created by players!!!) look better - canyons? oh please - what's new about that?
I'm not "slugging WB" for the sake of it - I'm still paying $10/month although haven't been online since Jan. But it looks clearly inferior. Sorry.
