SUPER GREAT JOB !

Post by: Vulcan on October 17, 2002, 04:43:34 PM: Then why are the sheep still nervous?

"gimme, gimme, wookie, cookie"??? This is what happens when you hang out with the LW crowd. You start sounding like a chick on drugs and playing The Village Peoples Great Hits 24/7.

FDBs have gone to being the Slim Sober "I've got Two Dads" Gay Support Group.

These are sad days indeed - what is AH coming too.

Title: The poofy pony community will be happy
Post by: jpeg on October 17, 2002, 09:52:08 PM: Looks great, but two things

1. This model will be less recognizable from a distance (I guess thats good for some people?)

2. I would rather have them spend the time working on more planes, even LW planes (and I don't even fly LW planes)

And all this comming from me, who has his e-mail address

p51fan@......

Don't get me wrong though, I love the p51 when it comes to it's historical aspect.

Post by: streakeagle on October 17, 2002, 11:41:14 PM: New planes are great and of course I want to see more, but most of the major planes are available and the older planes like the P-51 and B-17 need the update. Spitfires were already redone without cutting terribly into new plane production and look great. I am looking forward to seeing all of the older aircraft with updated skins AND seeing new planes.

The new P-51D looks sweet. Thanks for the update HTC.

While your gay obsession with the FDBs is flattering, I'm sorry to say that none of us feel the same way about you...well, maybe Sling...

i don't think sling feels anything except for the sheep. Is vulcan a sheep? I know he is apart of the herd, but don't know if he's been singled out...

Post by: Duedel on October 18, 2002, 04:38:15 AM: Yep looks really great (even though I really dont like ponys).

Post by: Hristo on October 18, 2002, 08:50:17 AM: Very nice, yes.

Now on to the hit sprites, cockpits, contrails, damage graphics...a lot of catching up to do.

You've been seduced by the, uh, dark side. As an employee your opinion doesnt count anymore :D :D :D

Post by: Skuzzy on October 18, 2002, 10:25:34 AM: Yeah Puck,...like that will slow me down. :D

As someone who has done 3D modeling, I have a lot of respect for those that do it for a living and can do it with such finesse.

Post by: swoopy on October 19, 2002, 10:02:42 AM: Il-2 is not MM.

Il-2 is not designed to be run on very basic systems.

Il-2s view system is so bad, it could have only been deliberately made so poor.

Post by: Puke on October 19, 2002, 06:10:52 PM: Ran across a write-up on Preddy's planes on a plastic model site. Gives some history on the pilot and then discusses the markings. Maybe someone would be interested:
