Hi These things are breeding like rabbits - first the two versions of the Vildebeest and now there's a Vincent complete with message hook and I haven't even started on the two Spanish versions

ps they're all still in undercoat - Uncle Tgt doesn't even know about this one yet

Sorry guys ...

... I went all "Obio" & got carried away with a "non-combat" scheme ...:173go1: What was I thinking, this isn't FS9!

... I'll get to the good stuff once this template is sorted, promise ...:blind:

:banghead:

....that's called making a silk purse from a sow's ear...she's done a Cinderella on us. :applause:
 
... bit closer to war ...

... instead of 22 sqdn from 1937, here's one from 36 sqdn just prior to WW2 ...

... Hewman will recognise this one ...:wavey:
 
I'd like to use the 22 squadron Vildebeest in my Torpedo Bomber ETO campaign!
looks great. I had another Vildebeest but it was really bad on frame rates (at least on my old clunker).

keep up the good work!
 
UT has info on 22 and 42 Sqn UK based aircraft prior to their switch to Beauforts in 1940.
He'll probably put you together a suitable scheme using a generic early war camouflage if you ask him:icon_lol:
 
... btw Merlin ...

:jump: ... don't forget Baldy's recently revisited the Fairey Albacore too ...

I think Hewman's given me enough to get something sorted for the ETO - consider it added to the (long) list.

Most likely it'll be a Vildebeest IV.
 
SPanish V'beest

Latest pic of this version - the paintwork is my adaptation of Uncle's base skin

btw can anyone help me out here - I've got a three view drawing of a Spanish a/c with torpedo crutch as per RAF a/c but I've also got a photo showing the more regular position - mind you the photo is of the prototype floatplane
