Hi FSM,
they should hire you for BoB as art director ... if they are smart they will, God knows that they could use one.

beautiful work as always ...ETA?

stay well

THAT would be cool. In the meantime though, I think I'd better keep doing my day job

GOZR - there's an MS406 further up the page and I'm trying to make sure I include French aircraft in as many missions as I can. Due to the very high object count on the map I can't use too many planes at once though.

FSM- great stuff

Always loved your missions/campaigns-

think you'd be great at BoB like Zo

Cheers

I loved the Novel so much - so after some searching, I found the ITV series on DVD and ordered it from the US.
It's great, don't get me wrong - BUT - they fly Spits in the TV series instead of historically correct Hurri's (availability) and they had to use Mk Vb's and Mk VIII's MIXED for the filming

Fret not - I guarantee it`ll be splashed across any and all flight sim forums. I`m never shy about blowing my own horn when it comes to campaign building! I figure that the amount of effort and time I expend does not deserve to go unnoticed, immodest as that sounds.
I think so many other interesting campaigns would really benefit form being more unashamedly self-promoting. Strange really as I`m actually quite a modest and un-showy person in the flesh.

If you have been reading abot the Sitzkrieg or the RAF squadrons in action in France then I hope you will catch something of the spirit in this although I have obviously focussed on the more action-filled aspects of the time.

Still not sure when it`ll be done. Babies make schedules hard to stick to. Especially when coupled to randomly crashing computers.

+1

Some people will scream "nutcases" but will then be in awe when they realize how much time & effort 3rd party puts on this game.

Yeah those who take the time and effort to make these missions, especially historical ones (because of the research they do to make those missions match up with available documentation) certainly have my appreciation

Same for those who make the cool skins that provide choices beyond the stock ones are also really cool to take the time and effort.

It adds much more depth to this already (for me) absorbing sim.
