:) The Hunter looks very nice - I wanna go in it:) I've no problem at all with you putting a proper CP in the Sea Hawk - it'd be great if you want to do one for it. I was experimenting a bit, with the Sea Hawk. Both with the modelling and with the textures, so it might seem a bit strange when you load it into your 3d app - that's if you haven't already:) E-mail me if you've got any queries about it. I've been splitting up the A-10 so it looks ok in .ac format, and refining it a bit - mainly canopy frames and U/C. I've done away with the individual fan blades too;) Then texturing... :) LeeE _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
