Hello Pete, Nice work 8),
As for the fuel tank, I also didn't find any mention of it, so here I rely entirely on you, whatever you decide will be good.

Best regards,
Piotrek

Here is a link to IPMS Stockholm (International Plastic Modellers Society), these were aircraft on order for Sweden:

https://www.ipmsstockholm.se/home/swedish-air-force-reconnaissance-part-1-ordered-but-not-delivered/

Seems the tank could actually be a radar not a fuel tank. :o

I think we will leave that off, I would not be able to make it work so it would be eye candy only, sorry, not worth the aggravation
of setting it up, and if there is not one in game already I would have to make it to begin with. ;)

That delivery scheme looks interesting, there is also a image on the net of a decal sheet for Dutch machines so if something can be
found for the other proposed exports that will give a skinner much to play with. ;)

Wishing you all the very best, Pete. ;D

You're right of course Pete, I share your opinion on this, generally speaking I'm glad to see how much has been done so far 8), so please don't worry about the little things :P,
Best regards,

Lines and rivets are now done. ;)

You guys can chop and change things to how you want later I am just trying to match the newly mapped
engines to the remainder of the airframe:




Still to do:

Make a default Hungarian skin.

I will most likely have to re-map the engine LODs.

See if my java set up still works and if I can add German and Hungarian defaults.


Wishing you all the very best, Pete. ;D

On a good way.




Source with more pics

The engine seems to be a little bit too much bubbled (maybe) and the spinner needs some work.  :-|

Reminds me of my work on the Focke Wulf 190 A-3. In the end the 3D man was near to kill me, but the plane looked nice  8)

Hello Wa99el, the engine issue has already been mentioned earlier, as I pointed out then this is not my 3d work but a attempt by Bison_M to try and replicate the particular aircraft using existing game aircraft parts, that is why we call it a franken around here as the alterations do not use specially made 3d but use the hier to attach and alter things to size and shape and produce something close, at least we hope so. ;)

Previously the engine needed a separate targa file to paint it which made normal skin work a problem so that is what I have attempted to overcome while leaving the model as Alex put it together.


I did consider actually making the engines, however, that would have entailed looking at alterations to the wing also and possibly other parts as well so the project could have got to a stage where I might have ended up trying to make the complete aircraft. :o

I am sure someone will import one from another game soon such as WT, meanwhile we can use this with my latest alterations. :D


Take care.


Wishing you all the very best, Pete. ;D

Nearly there, just the java changes to sort out if I can. ;)







The schemes are purely for the default if I can make it work for each nationality, they are hopefully near
enough to how the types were marked, if not the rivet counters et al can make some to their own taste
and replace later. :D


Wishing you all the very best, Pete. ;D

Glad you like the updated version guys. 8)

Maybe one day someone will give us the real deal, until then this fills a space so to speak. ;)

Right, where is that project I put aside. o_O


Wishing you all the very best, Pete. ;D
