+Laton 4 Posted April 29, 2008 (edited) Back & at it again Decided to work on getting the Sopwith Strutter out as its been a WiP for quite a while. The skin is a place-holder so I can check the mapping as I'm using a different technique. I'm no skinner so closer to release I'll check if anyone wants to give me a hand with this. The Hansa-Brandenberg D.1 is slowly progressing - could be the first of a series of Austro-Hungarian crates Edited April 29, 2008 by Laton Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

geezer205 0 Posted April 30, 2008 Very nice Strutter! Like you, I am returning to model-making after some real world interruptions. I'm also interested in the early-war period and have a couple of WIPs appropriate for 1916. While I am still learning how to make models in Max, I have experience making textures for completed models. Could I contact you for advice? In return, I would be willing to texture the Strutter for you. Shots below are of Morane-Saulniers operated by the British in 1916 - they were also used by the Russians so, if time permits, I will also make Russian versions.

+sinbad 27 Posted April 30, 2008 All this is good news indeed. The early war years are a real strength of FE. That's why I run two installs. I'll help with skins if more are needed. I am especially interested in the AH planes and the Adriatic theater. One day I hope we will have terrain modeled for that area. Who will be doing the FMs for these birds? sinbad Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Firecage 1 Posted June 5, 2008 I know this is starting to be a touchy subject but which FM or version of FE are these going to aim aor in the FM? EXP pack, Patched EXP pack, OLD FE or ? Im starting to take up more room than I like with all the FE installs to be able to fly most of the planes... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
