Interesting.....? Looks like it's going to be a cool paint once you figure it out.

No Kitty for MudMarine today, maybe Thursday........?
 
Hi,

Just downloaded the installer it has a suitably american background as well as an early conflict F4F-3 in early non-specular navy blue!
 
Hi Bazzar,

I have just purchased the Wildcat, and WOW!, have you outdone yourselfs! It is amazing in all ways - the sound, gunfire, graphic detail and functionality it is all there! Just a few quick niggles:
a. There is a giant click spot all over the cockpit for elevator trim specifically below and around the pilots seat.
b. Is the supercharger lever functional.

I :salute: you for this excellent product. It was well worth my $39.99. if you can recreate this ambiance in the DC-3 I will certainly buy it and and the BoB pack over other devs aircraft. To anyone who was hesitating to buy this; It is well worth your money.
:ernae:

EDIT: How do you lock the primer pump back in, I can unlock mine and pump but I cant re-lock it?
 
Thanks for the kind words mate. JF have a fairly rigorous upgrade policy so usually what we do is wait for al;l the complaints to pour in :>) then we do some remedials and issue a patch or two.

The Supercharger is non-functional at present but not to say won't be for ever. Unfortunately we can't lock the primer back in at the moment either but it is on the list of things to impro9ve if we can.

Glad you like these, we put a lot of work into them to get them the way we wanted.
Again, thanks very much for the words, it makes this job worthwhile:engel016:
 
Hi Baz,

Two more niggles:
a. I can only operate the fuel transfer (wobble pump) once; it refuses to move after that.
b. Could the gunsights brightness be turned up even more?

Not sure why there would would be a giant clickspot for elevator trim????......

However I still marvel at how great your tubby little fighter is. It may not be the fastest, or the most agile, but I think it has character and it is better than the A2A P-40! Good work!

EDIT: Baz, are you able to make some Wildcat and Martlet signature banners?
 
A few more WIP shots. This is by far the most difficult paint I have ever tried.
Still have a way to go yet. Hats off to :salute: the painters who make it look so good and so easy.
 
Hi Gradyhappy

That looks excellent. This paint kit is not as user friendly as others (some weird things happen to matching lined with breaks in places) so if you can do that - you can do any!! :salute::salute:
 
Hi,

Does anyone have night lighting in their wildcat cockpits? I only have a small, backlit turn and slip, thats it. would it be possible to apply the blue lighting like in the connie?

It's getting there but lining up everything is being a major pain in the old yoo hoo. LOL!
:confused:
 
Wow - excellent work Gradyhappy

I have got this far but as you are doing so well, and it would be easy to convert your paint to also cover this this one, I am not going to bother completing as (life is too short!! LOL) I have some others in mind.

Hi Gajit,

Are you able to make a fictional repaint for me? Do you think you could skin an F4F-4 in Grumman Hellcat colors with and without operation Overlord stripes?

Thanks in advance.
 
Thanks Baz!

I think anyone who has known me around here long enough, knows how long I've waited for a really good Wildcat! Can't wait to fly it and post some screenies!!:jump:
