Wow! Great shots Duckie :applause:
 
Back when I modeled the Marauder, the 3-views and reference pics were of little help in getting the nose Plexiglas just right.

The best pics I had that could be used for reference were of this restoration. Unfortunately the nose plexi frame was not accurate for the WWII period aircraft.

Duckie brought this to my attention as I was mistakenly under the belief that some aircraft from some plants had this framework.

So, after some analysis and review of the model, I decided to make it right. I have sent the models off to Steve to check them over.

Attached is one of three pics I used for reference in the original design, and the model after the change.

I hope you like this more accurate version.

BTW, if you want to do the restored version shown in the attachment, you had better save a copy of your current model. :)

First thanks

and second-that may happen.We had making the TA-152 same exercise when we took measures @ Smithonian, later to find out (Mathias) that they mounted the wrong wings ( 190D11 ) to the plane( and told them )

FSX gets more and more a historical collection about planes history

Best regards

Roland
 
Attached are Replacement model folders.

Pilot head animations improved to get him in the game, and get his head out of the port wheel well.

After a short break I started this one...

"Georgia's On My Mind", or, as she was affectionately know to her crews, "Old Dog P"

I don't suppose anyone is working on a 640th BS livery for this, are they? Were I a better painter then I'd have a crack at one, but I neither have the source information or ability to do a good job of it.

I've got large chunks of Little Walden done, though, if anyone has something to fly out of it?. ;)
