SOH-CM-2025
Hi Folks,
Just uploading a re-vamp of Ted Cooks AW Whitley MkV bomber. New bits and pieces including a complete set of operating bomb bays, including the inner wing ones, with full bomb load, and three new textures.

Cheers

WHITLEY Mk V - BOMBER COMMAND

Thanks Shessi. I thought that your update of Ted's Whitley for Coastal Command was really well done. This version for Bomber Command really put the icing on the cake.

Very nice textures, and the re-work of the nose-gun is outstanding.

A lovely old soldier that endured the 'blind-man's buff' of the early bomber campaign until the arrival of the Lanc.

It also served as the drop a/c for the newly formed Parachute Regiment, with a very nasty little hole cut in the floor instead of a proper jump-door.

Thanks again

Thank you very much Shessi for these fantastic textures and model alterations. They are a real joy!
And - A great big thanks to Ted for unearthing and modelling these lesser known aircraft, and bringing them to our FS community.
Applause all over! :applause:

Regards, Stuart
 
Great stuff!!

Many thanks for all the great work!! Nice glider-tug for my Waco CG4.

Nice work on those textures Shessi, Your brushwork on Ted's Whitley depict how those early British bombers actually looked (sans being pretty well beat up), as well as give an overwhelming sense of the British spirit during WWII, IMO.:encouragement:

Thanks guys, glad you liked them

One of those forgotten 'heroes' of the early war years, not particularily graceful but did the job at a time when there was not a lot of choice about.
