I had a 'Road to Damascus' moment a few weeks back when I bought (another) RoG Rafale, that will drop into this GB quite comfortably. All I need to do is buy the decals.....  :wacko:

Oh, if you have in mind what I think you have in mind, the results could be spectacular.  :wacko: I reckon the orange Rafale is no longer going to be Korean. And the decals you're thinking about don't include any mathematical formulas, do they?

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

I have a image to show. But because i am new to "What if" i dont know what to do. Can anyone help me find the upload button.  :huh:
I have heard it, it was close, a shock to my ears, i new i had to duck in cover, for if i didn't i would sure die... for i pushed the wrong switch, that caused chaos to everyone and me!

Right to post a picture, when in "Reply" there is an option on the bottom left hand side of the screen just outside the typeing box marked Additional Options. Click on this and there is an option "Attach:". If you then click on the "Browse" button you can then just click on the picture on your PC. Maximum size is 256kb. You can post up to 4 pictures at a time by clicking on (more attachments)

You can also link from picture hosting sites but others know better then me how to do that.

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Hello NARSES2, i followed your instructions. But when i clicked on "Additional Options" i had either "Notify me of replies.", "Return to this topic." and "Dont use smileys."

Ill figure out somthing. I have been needing to make my own gallery of my experimental aircraft, tanks, ships, space ships even stuctures. Most images are in 3D because i like to plan out before i make models of them.

Thanks NARSES2 :thumbsup:

Right I didn't explain it properly  :banghead:

It's not one of the tick boxes you mention but the "box" underneath them :

Attach : {-----Box---------} Broswe button (more attachments)

Hope that helps

Aha, thats it. Its working now. Thanks again.

And now.I present to you a ship that was designed to take on virtually anything.

The KG6

Ta da...

One image is the one i did with paint 4 years ago. The other image is a simulated computer model that i created.

This ship is equiped with=
4* qaudruple 14 inch/55cal turrets with vertical short range surface to air missiles.
4* twin 14 inch/55cal lightweight turrets.
6* M777 Dual Naval Guns, which is my own design of twin 6.10 inch/39cal (not installed yet)
8* Oerlikon guns 35mm (only four installed right now)

I have more info if anybody wants to know. I could just be boring everyone.

Looking at your ship with the landing deck on the back reminds me of the Saratoga & Lexington.  I never realized that these carriers had four, twin-8" gun turrets before until I read an article about them in the latest Air-Britain Aeromilitaria mag
If I'm not building models, I'm out riding my dirtbike

Glad you figured out how to post.  :thumbsup: It took me ages to figure it  :banghead:

just a clarification for this Group build.

Most of my Whiff builds use "pre-loved" models and for this exciting GB concept I would do the same, but the livery and "options" I plan to add would change a production aircraft back to a Test/Experimental testbed.. is this approach okey dokey on this GB ?

I PMed Ed about a model I had started earlier and he said I was ok to join. Slerski Has a completed X-32 he is refurbing, And Ed said it was not a problem so I am willing to bet its fine.  :thumbsup: I saw what you did on the F-111GB and it was not a simple repaint, You reworked the entire model that might have been "completed" but you nearly started from scratch so I would say you are free to enter

(especially if its something like that F-111  :wub: )

We're being quite liberal in letting people bring started models to this party. So go with this.

Now let's see a bunch of these getting finished!!!

I have officially abandoned my sub-scale F-111 demonstrator.... :banghead:

Life's been a bit random of late, but then, when I did finally sit down to it a few days ago, I realised there are unresolved problems with the idea that won't go away by Jan 1st anyway, so I'm afraid it's going back in the naughty box.
