Would rather have a Tu-2 or Pe-2.


(or wishful thinking: a Halifax III in 'Friday the 13th' markings, or DeHavilland Mosquito B.35)

If coming new bomber is B-24, we can see B-24/P-38L group vs Ki-84 battle. :)

Now THAT would be cool:cool:

That was a tongue in cheek comment regarding the Defiant.

LOL Pyro, I missed that B-24 thread. I'm still hoping for the Amiot 143M for when you guys model leaflet raids.

Scenario: A Bish Amiot 143m putters over Knight airfield. All in tower get the following popup: "Your cause is lost Knights. While you take part in your brave but hopless vulches and gangbangs, getting sent to the tower with horrible regularity, the Rooks are romancing your sheep in occupied territority. Defect to Bishop and right the wrong. You will not be harmed if you show this pass in the maproom."

Hey Superfly,
I'd be really interested in seeing you guys post a wireframed, unskinned model someday, just so people could get an idea of how much work goes into the model itself. Almost everyone is familiar with skins now. :)



ps. Maybe don't spoil the surprise with the one you're working on now, but an older model would be great to see. :)

No..no...nooooo...by all means, please spoil the surprise... :D

Dux has a point.  It would be nice to see the basic model beneath the finished product.

I'd also love to see a B-25... Only I'm torn... the -J would be nice for the glass nose and level bombing, but the solid nose 8-guns (with 4 more on the sides) would REALLY bring this thing into the fore-front for town leveling, I would think.

The only problem is you can't make that a weapons selection option, you have to model 2 entirely different planes (which we will only get 1 of at any given time)

It's not hopeless.  We got the Boston Mk III and the A-20G in the same release.

I can wait.   :aok


I am with you on this.... :cool:  

 Douglas Invader would be ideal for us UBER ALLIES to have. :aok
