Finished mapping and cutting control surfaces, now ready to import:


archie1971, i'd appreciate any photographs you have of sub-variants, especially those with unique weapons arrangements.

That looks pretty bad ass even with the "skin" it's wearing now!  Can't wait to see it in the game with a real skin on!

I've wanted to see this aircraft in game since PF was first announced.  Out of curiosity, what drawings are you using as reference?  I only ask as the fuselage cross section appears much more tubular and less oval shaped than one might expect.

This one:


It is ovular in cross section, you just can't tell from that image. Also, the F1M is quite tubby.
I've started importing the aircraft; about 50% done.

Great job, Mikoyan99 !!
you're work is stunning - both in style & speed!
re: "the F1M is quite tubby."...
indeed it is -but strangely, the tail fin is more redolent of the Me262 !
Overall, the snappiest biplane design ever, IMO.
Bring it on.

95% imported:

Just sorting out a few issues with the upper ailerons and excess parts. Import based on the Rex by Ranwers.
