Nice shots.. That one over London is just .. so far ahead of anything currently available when you look closely at the level of detail..

The first,second and last SSs...Oh,man!

The first one is the most impressive,the details of the weather.
That was something I wanted to see.How SoW weather will be.

Come on guys, read the text Oleg provided for goodness sake!

The first 2 shots are just pictures, NOT from the game. London, weather, aircraft...nothing to do with the live action at all.

I would say that they are screenshots reworked in Photoshop. Am I right, Oleg?

nice shots Oleg, thanks for keeping the Friday Updates going.

looking forward the next 'bigger' update ahead

the lighting, weather, and engine fire/smoke effect look terrific as does the battle damage and overall atmospheric modeling that is apparent from these few shots.

any chance of an ingame cockpit screenshot looking through gunsight reticle whilst firing at a target aircraft? Hurri, Spit, 109, doesn't matter

also - in Wings of Prey - there is something called 'blur' which adds a sense of speed by 'blurring' the textures of the passing terrain to either side of the center of POV in the cockpit....will your sim offer this feature as an option?

I'm also curious about rain in SOW - will there be a rain effect on the windscreen/canopy glazing and can we see a WIP shot of that from inside the cockpit inflight?

I hope my asking these questions will not cause Ilya to cancel the project...haha

The Hurri pic it just lovely... though that grass bug is definitely going to require squashing!

It would be nice to see the grass leading to the final resting place of the Hurri flattened down, but I can live without that level of detail... perhaps something for a patch a year or two down the road?
