ACHTUNG ! Ein neues Flugzeug Messerschmitt Bf109G-6

Work is continuing. The exhaust stacks are now detailed as well as the exhaust shield. Note that the stacks are also hollow to enhance the visual effect. You might also note the compressor bump under the buele on one of the versions.

Hi all

Paul deserves the accolade Shadow, but thank you. He does the outstanding modeling. I just slap paint on this marvelous model.

Here is a look at another current development. It's not textured yet (my task for the day) but I thought I'd give you a preview.

That's awesome ! :redfire:

Are these gunpods parts of the model, or weapons available through the DP ?

Will you make only the G6, or will you make other variants as well ?
 
The gun packs will probably be part of the model, for the simple reason that weapons don't seem to appear in the VC, and the barrels are visible from the cockpit. That said, we are tailoring models to fit the paints, so some will have them, some will not.

Right now, we are focused on getting the basic G-6 done. Once that is finished, we will consider future projects. Could that involve additional models of the 109? Certainly a possibility...

So we've decided the Bf109G-6/R6 will be a unique model - gun gondolas are part of the wing model. Here's the final texture.

Captain Kurt,

You and Pstrany are doing awesome work, keep it up! :encouragement:
 
Thanks all.

Here's the drop tank. The third member of Daedalus Design Group, Oglivie, did the SCASM work on this one. Also note the detailed tank mounting rack.

Introducing the pilot. He's still in development but getting close. His head is animated so he constantly looks around.

A Special Thank you To Wolfi.....

I'd like to offer a special thank you to Wolfi, for making the source of his Japanese pilot available. His pilot served as the basis for this figure, and saved quite a bit of work.

Thank you Wolfi!! :very_drunk:

Hi all,

We are in the middle of finishing the cockpit right now, so we are getting close to completing the basic 109G-6. There will be specific variations depending on the skin - aerial mast height, compressor bump, umbrella mount flange, /R6 gun boats, etc. I'll show you more when we get through the cockpit work.

In the meantime here's a preview of what will come next after we finish and release the basic G-6. Extremely early development stage at this point.

Still working on cockpit development as you can see from the pics. Paul is getting a lot of detail into it.
