Wow! already looking good!

Hi! I just wanted to warn you all...:
Get ready for something BIG on the last part of the next week... VERY big indeed...

I've also gone back to school and I work as well so progress picks back up here and there when I have some free time. I'm in the process of organizing the Ta-154 and Me-262 drawings as well and I apologize for the long time it has taken me to work on them along with what's on my worklist.

Enjoy,

It looks like we can expect a blizzard of FW-190s *yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa* Are you planning to do the Turkish birds as well? They received 72 of them.

I have this quaint idea of deploying FW-190s for air support in Korea, thereby surprising (to put it mildly) many US/UK troops. Logistics would probably preclude this, but it's a fun AU idea.

Can't wait Naixoterk, I'm looking forward to that

I plan on doing a lot of them actually But I think for the Turkish aircraft I have about half a dozen camo schemes collected so far, I can always try to find more Just don't expect anything soon, I think I will post in batches for different countries so there won't be such a huge delay than if I post them all together.

@Imperialist
That would be great to see a comprehensive series of Fw-190 family.
Although seeing Me-262's and Hs-129's would be cool too.

And now something bit different. To all FD-scale Artists.
I just started working on adding some stuff to Polish Wings - namely some updates to pre-1939 section, mostly the pioneer aircraft (including some unbuilt/unfinished ones), and thought that it seems that all pre-1914 aircraft in FD scale are so far my works (leaving aside some repaints by Odysseus1980 and Naixoterk).
So I have a request... no, I dare you...
to do more pioneer aircraft in FD scale!
Santos Dumont, Antoinette, Voisin 1907, Etrich Taube, British Army Aeroplane No.1... (to mention a few)
so many great classics are waiting for someone willing to make an effort of drawing them...



And a small WIP teaser:

Says a lot that I've never heard of any of these. Then again, the vast majority of my aircraft knowledge comes from a childhood of Biggles books, War Thunder, and looking into aircraft for my NS nation in the past year or so.

Truth be told, pre 1914 airplanes are very interesting. There are many of them like the Farman biplane, Dufaux 5, Avro Type D/E, Avro 500, Avro type F, RAF Se.1 and many others that would be very a very welcome addition!

I agree with Eswube; I had thought about adding some WW1 types for an AU I'm slowly cooking up, but that's a long term plan.
I think also, it will take some skilled artists to do a good job given how biplanes and rigging can be a bugger to draw.

At the moment various ships are keeping me more than busy, but I do feel the need to do some FD scale aircraft.

Can't wait to see Naixoterk's big post!
