@Diloph thanks, it's strange how you naturally develop a style, I can see what other people do and why, yet my builds just follow my own way of doing things.
@Irobert55 You sir, then have a distinct advantage in the use of the german language =) I have amended it accordingly, if i later find out its a german swear word I shall be tickled and not evenly slightly embarrased.
@Irobert55 i used google translate and it had airborne mortar as Luftmörtel. The second o was because SP didnt recognise the german letter while in game and displayed it as blank.
@Tang0five you and me both, dont get me wrong it wont stop me building what I fancy, it just irks me when I've spent so long on something for it to "slip under the radar" sort of speak (pun intended)
@Tang0five washes, oh my, everytime I buy them they sit on the shelf and by the time I want them they have dried up... I have a tendency to get some built ready for paint and then abandon them for a year or 2 but so far so good this time. I finished an ac130, p47, f15 and hellcat that I had "floating" about and then built a whirlwind, mustang, gnat, hawk, jaguar, x32 and x35. Now I'm waiting for my humbrol delivery of varnishes :) I've built more in this lockdown than I have in the last 4 years.
@Tang0five not sure it might have been, it has slowed my building down, i have 2-3 almost finished builds that i tinker with from time to time. To be fair i have been enjoying the lockdown and have been tinkering with some of my plastic kits again, im no modeller thats for sure but i enjoy it and its nice to get some of them out of boxes and on the display shelves lol
@Tang0five your not wrong, I also notice that if you are not one of the top 5 users then votes are more difficult to get, if boggy posts something he gets 60 plus guaranteed but that's just the way the cookie crumbles :) What's been getting me of late is how much I'm fighting the program, buts keep detaching, moving or plain disappearing without my direct input, not to mention how the parts keep forming random connections...
@asteroidbook345 @Mustang51 thanks again for the comments and upvote, this one sat around for ages before I got around to posting it, I just wanted a bit of a bomb truck :)
@AWESOMENESS360 hes posted a couple if things but I try not to build too much of his, jimbowyrick actually posted pics of my builds on his page so I dong think he minds :)
@Justadood they are just so annoying on the game when pistons just move and do what they want... thanks though, I might re-visit this concept at somepoint
@Tang0five Thanks! That original Canberra was my breakthrough build I feel, it was a MK1 eyeball build as well. I cant believe how difficult an accurate one was to make =)
@rexzion depends if the plane was ugly to start with. Look at my last build, I used blueprints if a hawk gor the fus and blueprints of a provost for wings then combined them, works for me :)
If you move the conflicting part away from the build with something like multi edit you can the copy it over then nudge it back. It's better though that you dont have bits that overlap in the first place.
@Oofsomeplanes there is a mod for it, let's you set it at any colour you want
@asteroidbook345 yeah I've used that before, I just wondered if there was a neater way to link vtol and throttle. Thanks though
@Type2volkswagen thanks man, glad it surprised you :)

@Irobert55 Thanks, shows you how reliable google translate is then =)
@Irobert55 i used google translate and it had airborne mortar as Luftmörtel. The second o was because SP didnt recognise the german letter while in game and displayed it as blank.
@Hedero yep, mk22 spit wings.

I couldn't get away with sr2 at all, I just found the user interface, menus etc to awkward. Mby I'm just too used to sp.
@AWESOMENESS360 hes posted a couple if things but I try not to build too much of his, jimbowyrick actually posted pics of my builds on his page so I dong think he minds :)
@Starbound lol wot, it has 3 engines and is faster that real life spitfire...
@ArcturusAerospace sorry, I have way too much on at present, not getting much time for sp.
@Justadood they are just so annoying on the game when pistons just move and do what they want... thanks though, I might re-visit this concept at somepoint
@Mumpsy thanks, glad you liked it.
@Diloph yep, when u right click an image on DISCORD you get the option to copy the link.
Eh? As in collisions true or false?
@Diloph which pic?
@Tang0five oh man I didn't realise the designer suite wasnt on iPads etc.. that's a shame really, it can be quite handy.
@ChisP thanks :) its certainly one if my more accurate replica builds.
@Diloph I have a walkthrough here if it helps, it's just a bit of paneling with a bit of forethought as to shape etc.
@ChiChiWerx thanks, I'm grateful for your comments and feedback - it always helps to know I'm doing something right :) glad you liked it.
@Hedero @Trainzo thanks for the votes and comments.
@Avro683Lancaster sorry I read the B(I)8 as B1, my bad :)
@Tang0five Thanks! That original Canberra was my breakthrough build I feel, it was a MK1 eyeball build as well. I cant believe how difficult an accurate one was to make =)

@Thanksgivingdin cool, thanks, enjoy.
@ND40X that's exactly what it is, hawk fuselage with provost bits, I thought it looked similar to an l39 albatross in the end.
Depends what you are after, scale realistic build - yes, if you are making fictional then no. Simples :)
@Hectord27 thanks, glad you liked it, was a fun build and I love flying it about.
@ssenmodnar it's just paneling, stick a keel down the middle and panel to it. Have a look at any of my flyingboats.
3 is way more than you need (even for me)
If you move the conflicting part away from the build with something like multi edit you can the copy it over then nudge it back. It's better though that you dont have bits that overlap in the first place.
@Tang0five thanks again, I enjoyed this build, the red arrow stripes drove me nutty though, not to mention sp randomly connecting stuff :)
@Megamonster did you mean to shout?
@asteroidbook345 kind of, its actually closer to a hawk fuselage with wings and tail sections from a provost as I said in my description :)
@Diloph @Yte1234567 @Hedero thanks for the votes and comments.
@EternalDarkness your not wrong now you have mentioned it... I suppose the t2 will have a new canopy :)
@MethaManAircraft throttle is messed up on mine, it acts as an on / off lever. Just the way the game detects it I think.
@MethaManAircraft yeah, only plugged it in for this so I was quite happy how it went (last plugged it in about this time last year)
@EternalDarkness ok, ty, I didnt know that.
@Hectord27 thanks, glad you liked it.
@Tang0five Im amazed at what you can manage on a tablet, That lion would have taken me ages even on a PC not to mention all the writting etc... wow.
@MethaManAircraft thanks, I bet you have some interesting stories to tell then.
@ND40X you had me worried there, mine has a wingspan of 10.9m the real one is 10.77m so its within tolerances.
@ND40X oh bollox I forgot to check before publishing...
