People tended to be a little smaller in those days, the average height of a man being 5' 8".
John Wayne towers above those people in any case.

Some people's propensity on this forum to bitch and moan about anything never ceases to amaze me.

The only way to check the size of the pilot is to see a pic with him standing next to the hurri...luthier??

landscape looking better but..and i know its WIP before anyone chips in...but the colours still off for the fields...looks more like france than southern England.

Everything else looks great to me.

cheers.

Agree with comment elsewhere that:
1. The train is out of scale with road(s) which are at best B class but probably C.

Compare this rather crude edit with original.



2. Train tracks crossing roads always have what is known in UK as "Level Crossings" if not bridged.

Now the rest of the landscape is out of scale with the train and the roads. Look at the trees, and there are two crossings with the length of the train. I am still convinced the problem is that the roads are too wide, the train was almost certainly to scale.

lol good one mate, that made me laugh

All pics looking great. As you mentioned this is still a WIP and their will be many more tweaks before the first release.
I am just grateful we have the basis for a very worthy successor to IL-2 Sturmovik and as SOW develops over the years ahead we will see many graphic improvements which will eventually stop all the 'whining' (I hope?).
Keep up the good work, hope Oleg is back on deck soon. I would be interested in seeing some more FMB tools in future updates and of course a video.

All we can say is this; we were sent from a future and this future did not have SoW.
