Description: V-156F-3 - French Navy texture for Paul Clawson SB2U Vindicator rebuilt by Allen with dive brakes. This is the export version for the French Navy, 40 built.

Most of them were destroyed by the Luftwaffe during hopeless fights in Norfh of France.

The bomb support was removed and supposed to be replaced by French models, but no plane was equipped with those devices. The machine guns were replaced by French Darne MGs.

Fde Bressy,

Your taste for the obscure and your skill bringing these models to life never ceases to amaze. Well done! :salute:
 
Where can Allen's rebuilt model be found?

Thanks for doing all of the skins!
 
Hallo Allen,

Thanks for the compliments, but nothing could have been possible without you renewal work on the model.

What comes next from you?:jump:

Congrats for your French...

Regards to all of you.
 
Whats next? Don't know. In the last 30 days did the rebuild of the SB2U/V-156 a rebuild of the stock A6M5 to be a A6M5c and a 95%+ scrach made Crimson Skies Bloodhawk is almost done. I have to do the last bit of ingame testing for the Bloodhawk than it is done as well. I put up 2 screen shot of the Bloodhawk in the "Screenshots" thread.
 
May I make a request?

Allen,

If I might make a request for a model to be rebuilt, how would you feel about a multi-lod Martin Baltimore? There really is only one model out there that works, and it could DESPERATELY use a rebuild. If you could be persuaded to work on this, I would be extraordinarily grateful to you!

Here is the model:

Allen,
If you are after more GMAX projects, there are a number of projects that have been released at Simviation that you could have a sticky beak at.
http://simviation.com/1/browse-Design+Source+Files-103-0

Look through and you will see both GMAX & FSDS orphans looking for a good home, plenty of opportunities for Crimson Skies extension work as well.

I just finished a profile based on the pic that accompanied the download...

Ooops... jumped the gun and forgot to finish the propeller...

I remember that from way back when before FS2002 and gmax.... I look over them maybe something will look good.

HEAR! HEAR! YES!

The first mod that comes to my mind for this Baltimore is round engine cowls instead of ovals. I'll take it out for a spin today to see what else could be done.

Splendid repaints! Thank you!
