For those that remember, I'm a bit of a Canberra nut (putting it mildly) and have been working on a new series of FS2004 Canberra models since the autumn. After a bit of umming and erring I thought I'd share something of how they're going. It's going to be a pretty comprehensive build in terms of bomber canopy types, starting with the standard B.2. Here's where I am on that variant so far....the next major stage after sorting the cockpit and nose cone is the bomb bay. It'll have a VC down the line as well, but that's a long way off yet.
Happy New Year to all,
Steve

Cheers Ben, and they're Gmax. Once I get this one built it should be a case of cosmetic surgery mainly on the nose to make the others...although doing the various VCs is a going to be a a bit of a bugger since it seems no two Canberra cockpits are vaguely alike! Still, I am looking forward to getting to the other types...the 'swordfish' nose being among the eagerly awaited.
Good stuff mate. Reason I ask is that GMAX stuff works better in the Dark Side as a general rule, and there is always the option to recompile if you go that way further down the line
Yes good to know, cheers Ben. Skippy and Sketchy74 are planning to recompile my Sea Hawk for the Dark Side somepoint fairly soon, so Gmax has turned out to be a good thing. It wasn't planned that way; I just happened to dabble in 3DS Max a few years ago and the transition to Gmax was easier.
Still, I am looking forward to getting to the other types...the 'swordfish' nose being among the eagerly awaited.
