Forgive my brain freeze.....

do sticks,collectives need be animated in pit or just set py pivot point and data.ini setting for them..?

obviously doors etc nee animating.....I assume the sticks are same as the way throttles work in game by data entered in the ini...

cheers chaps....

isolation aint so bad.....

if you want a great distraction check out Brian May form Queens youtube ...he posts a vid every day...and plays some guitar for us....

hmmm plenty of time and able to get this cockpit nearly done...its not 100% but close......as close as im doing anyways lol...its the freeware one and a LOT of stuff replaced or added by urs truly......I think the legs look ok....had to redo them....just about all the model done of pit...just got to do the data now....as to the helo...a bit of work....

because the fuselage is mapped using subobjects...so I have to map the bits like the nose section ,bottom and top meshes to fuselage texture etc etc....then i have to also condense down the template...

animated the gears....need to do windows and door.....then the data ini...should be about a week or thereabouts...hopefully....

pics not in order...you may notice more bits in some pics...they are the latest shots....

I was gonna say the clouds are background...but you can see that in last shots lol...just realised no need to mention it   ha ha

amazing!!! great stuff Russ!!!

(don't suppose I could ask for a static, parked version when you get the flying one done? I've been populating army bases with aviation assets, and we only have 6 units to do that with, and they're mostly late 60s and up Hex editing & renaming stuff in/for the SH3- lod gives me 5 more, but, they're just repaints)

Incredible! Any chance to make the version with floats?

Man, I can kill to have this kit again!!!!!

[Wilches 1,172]

I mean this

[Wrench 9,848]

I had the kit so many times (like the Revell 1/72 B-17F,) that I didn't need the instructions anymore!!!

I miss those days....

I wonder if I still have the "box art" hangar screen archived???

[Wilches 1,172]

There were two main versions. The early straight tail boom and the later cranked. Not to mention the british Whirlwind.

[Wrench 9,848]

yes, with the turbine engine

[Wilches 1,172]

Is the H-19 cockpit dead or alive?

[+russouk2004 6,958]
