Beautiful!
And there is much rejoicing!

Bloody Marvelous!

Basic main visual differances between the MKI and MKIa would probably be the dorsal turret, MKI had a Damler turret, MKIa had a Bristol one, MKI had rearward facing plexiglass chin gun (but not always), MKIa had forward facing twin nose mounted guns, MKI had folding DF loop aerial, while the Ia had the streamlined fixed DF.

I could be wrong but I don't think there was a MKII, it just jumped to MKIIa from the MKIa, the IIa had P&W Twin Wasps.

Don't know anything about the designations, but that's some nice work John!

Beautiful skins there, and a dashed fine model!

These are great!! How soon ?

 

[Pat Pattle]

That's coming along a treat, and all those fab skins too!



As an observation, the external model looks a bit large compared to the cfs3 pilot or maybe it's the angle in this photo?

Yeah...as mentioned, its a conversion of a fs9/cfs2 model. The scale of the whole plane is correct but the canopy area does appear a bit large. Would have required major surgery to fix. There's a few other areas that seem a bit off I'm afraid.

No worries, it still looks bl**dy great!


(I couldn't even model the canopy!)

Yea cockpit is a little out of scale, as Steve has explained, but also Clive, that's your pilot model with the oxy mask, he's a tiny bit on the small side, but I really like the mask mod, one of the best tweaks out there, any chance of you feeding him up a bit in the future? Stock pilot is a slightly bigger model.
I'm not being critical of your work Clive, as I've said your pilot mod is one of the best ideas we've had, (I use it all the time) but all the pilots should have oxygen masks, it is after all a combat sim, I think the stock pilots look a bit silly compared to yours!

By George you're right John! Have just checked back through the dusty archives and I did indeed make the model a tad smaller. Thinking back, the stock pilot is a strapping 6+ footer so I made the RAF version a smaller, more modest chap.

If you or anyone would care to have a look at the source files I've uploaded them here.

It's a quirk of google drive that it splits the files up, so goto to the top left where it says 'file', click on that and go to 'download' to get them all at once.

Feel free to do whatever you want with the models, the RAF texture is Nigels fine work.

Ok Clive, thanks, I'll stick it in the blender!:mixedsmi:

Fascinating stuff!
