My advice, Hawkers, is to build it from scratch... For many a reason...
Thats whats happening with the Lancaster - a total rebuild from scratch. At the end of the day, its easier, and quicker than working off someone elses work, I assure you.
Yes, thinking more about it, probably makes much more sense to do a totally new model. From what I've seen on the web, most commercially available models are far too high poly for IL2, anyway. I've PM'd Username for his drawings, so hopefully I'll have something decent to look at soon.
A complete build from scratch is I'm sure, a massive task. I assume that with the Lanc, you chaps have a team of modellers working on different parts of the airframe, caps, LODs and so on. The Do17's unique shape is going to present a challenge, and my modelling skills are limited, so I'm hoping that some of you guys out there with 3ds Max experience (Slow, Magot, american) will be able to do some work on this. If a team can be assembled, we can proceed - I'm hoping - under your watchful eye, Magpie :wink:
