he DOES lose his elegance qith the gear down and the bigger cowling...
but the 3-blade prop should help make better use of the Engine HP...

Well, I feel that with the gear down, it gives the plane an incredibly complicated and sophisticated look, like some kind of delicate art construction ...

I really must express my admiration for the 3D work done to recreate the gear.

With the gear down it looks like a Steampunk plane, really art decó.

The 3D model looks very nice. A lovely little bird.  8)
But I'm more curious how the plane looks in game. I'm afraid it will loose a some of it's smoothness and details.
Take for instance the nice 3D radial engine,in IL2 we always see the flat 2D solution.  :(
Looking forward to some IL2 screenies of this biplane.

and of course the skins will be the completion of the plane ... how the template looks and with what amount of detail will determine a lot ... but I'm certain it will work out well ...

Hey everyone,

I didn't think someone would note my absence  :P.

Not to panic. I'm still working on the plane. I just needed some quiet time right now to streamline the poly count on the plane -- it does start to get tedious. Next, I'll try to bulk-import the plane onto IL-2 to see where I need to work on smoothing. That's it for now.  ;)
