Shapes of Things to Come...

[Tango_Romeo]

...not to be confused with the 1930s movie of the same name starring Raymond Massey:

At any rate there are a number of new projects underway out in the backlot that hopefully will grace our plates in the new year:

- An all-new update for the Fox Four F-86E/F with several new skins

Has "someone" had a very liquid fueled New Year and Xmas perchance?

[Tango_Romeo]

How can I feel so good today after so much cheer last night?

[ozzy72]

Yup, and if it makes you feel any better I did a fair bit of "consumption" myself whilst doing all the housework. The weird thing is the place is immaculate... my head on the other hand has decided the combinations I was experimenting with weren't overly clever. Still managed to get up at 04.50 this morning to get ready for work!

4:50AM.....OOOOOOhhhhhh, that hurts!

The fourth evolution of the Fox Four F-86E/F is undergoing final testing, and BUB has three newly upgraded skins ready to go with the new aircraft.   All nearing the time for posting.  There's a Gabreski and a Risner in the E. as well as a Parr F  [smiley=vrolijk_26.gif]

Now....the final pile that I've stepped in is this breakable ship business. but that is more Collin's baby than mine.   So I'm off the hook a bit on this one.....no time frame available.

Parr's Barb/Vent de Morte (Death Wind) from BUB's talented airbrush...

Sopwith C's airbrush is starting to heat-up.

[oldwheat]

Lookin' good all all counts TR!

[Tango_Romeo]

OMG!  [smiley=cheesy.gif]

It's getting Viet Nam out...... [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

Sotto Voce What started as a minor upgrade has turned into the proverbial 'tarbaby'....he mutters to himself as he and SopwoithC slave away pushing and painting polygons.

How sweet this baby is!

In 1965, I stood on the runway at Lowry AFB, CO while all the aircraft from a large airshow departed for home.  All the jets did high-performance takeoffs and made a low pass before leaving.   I soon forgot the puttering old A-1H after she tottered off and disappeared into the east.  About ten minutes later everyone on the field was looking up seeking the source of the high-pitched scream of a piston engine.   What we saw was the A-1H in a 70-degree dive.  She must have started at about 20,000 ASL feet (the field elevation is 5.000 ASL) and finally pulled out at around 2,000 above the runway.  Point made, A-1 Pilot.   She ain't flashy, but she's got hidden talents. 

When I say she's a screamer, I mean it literally. 

Come to the darkside; we have Skyraiders!  [smiley=vrolijk_26.gif]
