I'm well aware of the geography of the Solomons and "Cactus" as well.

I helped make the landscape in those images ;)

The kunai grass hills near henderson are all in the right places, too. :D

Sorry, I was responding to CCIP, not you! Yes, Guadalcanal.

Here I am, flying a Harry Tate:

And here is another victory for Sergeant James Plainview! 3 claims in one day, one of them appeared to be Josef Carl Peter "Kobes" Jakob, of Jasta 7. A good days work in other words!:up:

:up:Cool!

Yet another victory for Sergeant James Plainview. Now to be considered an ace since he has 5 comfirmed kills!

But that flight almost became his last. After shooting down 2 enemy craft (of 3), a HUGE group of Albatros D.V dived out of the clouds, and before I knew it, they had hammered my left wing to pieces! I had to do an emergency landing at a field in the vicinity, and for a moment I was sure I'd crash. But I made it. Fit to fight another day!:yep:

Ha the Russians thought they where going to get me, but they did wound me and give my plane a leak in the fuel tank. But I did make it back to base before my engine died.

Where is your base?

With all the sepia, I thought you crash landed in the desert. I was about to say "Don't follow the camels" :lol:

Well it was near Stalingrad in the middle of winter. That was my last air battle there and having shot down some 106 russian planes in the process and have yet to be shot down by an enemy aircraft. Now I'm currently in the Kuban Bridgehead area supporting the evacuation that will happen.

indeed, what said before it looks more that you where flying in the afrika campaign :D

HunterICX

Would be great to have an Africa campaign, go hunt Panzers with the Mark IIc field mod 'cane! :arrgh!:

There's an Africa campaign for DCG. ;)

:yep: been using DCG for my off line career now, must say that its a big difference there is at least something going on in the air.

HunterICX

Yep, I cant even think of going back to the stock campaigns where there's usually max. of 20 planes total in the air. ;) Gives nice confusion and fear to see 30+ bombers flying towards you in one formation with escorts flying overhead. :yep:

Well I think I'll try it out!!

A quick very early WIP of my newest creation:
http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/e...t/P51Me262.jpg

There's an actual story behind the shot. On October 7th 1944, 2nd Lt. Urban Drew was just about to have a drink of Bourbon with his squadron mate, Billy Kemp after they both were grounded for doing victory roll over their squadron's airfield in the end of their last sortie when Squadron Commander came in to tell them they are going up again.

"Put the bottle away" he said, because we're going on a mission to Brux, Czechoslovakia. There are Me 262s operating in the area, and you know more about them than anybody in this squadron. So, you're leading the mission."

During the mission, they flew over the German airfield at Achmer and spotted two Me262s lined up, ready to take off. Drew dived immediatly after the 262s, managing to critically hit the 2nd 262, causing it to explode in the runway. The 1st one tried to climb away and was an easy prey for the Urban Drew's 'Detroit Miss'.

:D Nice!
looks like concept art to me :up:

HunterICX

Just this stupid Photoshop keeps crashing on me. :damn:

EDIT: New WIP. 262 added, shell casings, and got rid of the cars and stuff.

:up: quite good matey

I agree....but one small question http://img98.imageshack.us/img98/181...kbigsw1yo4.gif

Are you sure that isn't Steel_Tomb and not you http://img113.imageshack.us/img113/7...ebigtb9fg3.gif

He's the 262. :yep:

I figured that's how you'd respond http://imgcash3.imageshack.us/img412...uplargeon1.gif
