Most glad you joined, Jorel! I really like the idea of a "Carolina Navy" and my, what lovely spats you have...

It must be sympathy for the underdog but I do love the Buffalo ... and Vargas is scrummy icing on the cake  ;)
Title: Re: Jorel's Stuff...
Post by: Brian da Basher on February 25, 2012, 09:07:07 AM
I've got to agree that Buffalo is hot! The Vargas art certainly doesn't hurt, either!

I read an old interview with Pappy Boyington on a Flying Tigers site a while back. He said he thought the Buffalo was a pretty snappy aircraft and might've been able to hold its own against the Zero before they added a lot of weight to it. He said it was more manoeverable than the P-40.

Nice work, Jorel!

Jorel, can you please try a fully loaded ground attack, carrier based Skynight?  I always thought it looked like a primitive A-6, A-10, Su-25, etc...  Wonder how well it would have worked.  Choose your own markings/navy.

Please keep the girls coming  ;)  LOVE those Comets!!!  Its a prop Meteor right?  What engines did you chose?

Thanks a lot everyone...... I don't know a lot about the powerplants used. But if were to guess the Comet Mk. II would be powered by two Rolls-Royce Merlin's and the Comet MK. VI two Power Jet Ltd. turbojet's

With 4 x 30mm cannon already, I do think it needs more guns.  A nice mix of bombs and rocket pods would look sharp, though.

Oh, I like that.  Instead of going for high-speed as in the XF-84H, they go for lifting capability with the straight-winged F-84 as a start and mix in a touch of A2D.  Now, if Allison could only get the engines right without having to go through a complete redesign or got the redesign done faster.  These would be perfect with T54 engines (T54 is to the T56 as the XT40 was to the XT38 - i.e. two of the other's gas generators driving one gearbox).

I agree that a Kahu or A-4R "Fighting Hawk" radar nose would look good on the Devastator II or on the Skylass (with a name like that, it seems destined, too, for high and flighty nose art).  For a Missileer-style radar nose, you'd need a rather large radome.  If the radar antenna could get acceptable range and stay within the width of the fuselage, I could see a straight, constant cross-section, area right in front of the cockpit and then a large radome.  If the antenna needed to be wider than the fuselage, I can see some interesting fairings aft of it; how well these are executed and blend into the existing lines would have a great effect on the aesthetics of the result.

Thanks guys........ you think my Devastator II is ugly   :icon_sueno:
Not hardly, I think the Devastator II looks good and was commenting on the thoughts of dy031101.  A suitable radome, like those conversions I mentioned, would look good on on since the lines would blend.  Going for a large, Missileer-style, radome would have the effects I mentioned (I'd rather you didn't, myself, as either would seriously hurt the aesthetics of the Devastator II).

Maybe a U4 version or even a FG2 in the two tone grey scheme of some of the La-5s?  For that matter, what about a La-5 with the R2800?

Anyone have some 1/72 decals for that?  I have an F2G that needs ideas.  Would look great sitting on the ground in snow.  That two tone gray over light blue is just  :-*

Needs a Russian pin up though.  Have any in those fur hats of theirs?  ;)

Looks good but the rivet counter in me says “hang on that’s the air force SLUFF…”

For Australian Army aircraft the Aviation regiments have recently been awarded their own cap badges (only took 15 years to process) alongside their colours.

The eye of the charger in 6 Avn Regt is coloured red on the badge…

Particularly the 8 Sqn. Comet, but I think there would be a chance! of 'Nose Art'.
After all, 8 was ALWAYS the 'Naughty'! squadron.

Jorel,
        I found a way to "weather" using a photoshop tool but it's still a bit involved - will experiment with "paint fading" later.


The Old Hag
       After squadron service, 491 was used as a single-seat initial-trainer.  It had a tough life, finally being written-off when it bellied in & hit a runway light.  RAF apprentices "straightened" the wing & belly panels making it somewhat suitable as a gateguard at RAF St.Mawgan where, facing the sea, the paint weathered quickly.  Corrosion from the salt air made it unsafe even as a gateguard & it was finally scrapped.
