Yak-18 BETA.....you need to see it to believe it!

Two more uploads for the Yak-18 will be in the library soon. Both were sent to me by Swingman...one is a layered Photoshop paint kit for the plane and the other is a new skin for the plane...a lovely red scheme.

My internet connection must be wonky or something as I can't upload the files. Will try again tomorrow.
 
I just uploaded a new paint for the Yak-18. This paint came from Swingman. He asked me to upload it on his behalf.

I also have the layered Photoshop paint kit he sent me...but can't upload it to due to some error in the upload size limits. For some reason, size limits for uploads is set at 260K....not sure if that is a universal thing or simply due to the fact that I am hogging up a bunch of the library space with all my previous uploads.

Once the size limit thing is straightened out, I will upload the paint kit and a set of UV maps for the Yak-18.


OH.....and Swingman clued me in on another development for the Yak-18...but I won't tell ya what it is until he is done with it and ready to present it to the world....but ya'll are going to LOVE it.

The Tu-114 in my mind was indeed the Constellation east of the iron curtain in my book and one of the few really good looking airplanes to take to the air from any manufacturer.
Of course mentioning the 114 and her most famous passenger is not possible without also mentioning the rather funny events that happened when she arrived in the US and there were no boarding stairs available that could reach the long legged aircraft's doors. Leaving Nikita and his delegation climbing down the Tupolevs emergency escape ladder to reach the Tarmac at Andrews AFB for the first ever visit of a soviet leader to the US. I have read a few snarky comments he supposedly made afterwards but could not find them just now.

Cheers

Any news from Swingman?:jump:

Haven't heard from Swingman lately....I know he is busy with real world stuff (some of it pretty heavy stuff too). I am really hoping to hear from him on the progress of the other Yak-18 developments.....when he told me what he had planned I was super excited about it.
