I've been consolidating all the screenshots I have taken (and which have survived) in my various installs over the last eight years of being involved in modding EAW. These I think are some of the more interesting, both goodies and oddities. Some you might have seen before, some perhaps not. Some are projects which got finished, and some are not. Some are still, interminably, on the way, and others unlikely to be smile

Many thanks to all those who contributed in one way or another to all this stuff.

Well it is self-indulgent Sunday morning, so you'll have to forgive me smile smile

Hi Moggy -

Iīm forgiving your self-indugence but youīre making appetite for more. There are several modelīs which havenīt found their way to the avid crowd - especially your He 177 gives me sore eyes.

Any proposals to ease my pain?

Ok, so how do we get that island airfield into NG?

I've added a few airfields on isolated islands here and there throughout the map but right now they're just green tree covered islands. Yours looks much better.



Are you trying to make a Neptune from the A26 or are you just fiddling around with wingtip tanks?
Could use the Neptune is a couple of 1946 scenarios.



Last but not least, Flyright and I updated the HS129 and Flying Tiger made a bunch of skins for it so you can take it off your to-do list if you want. That way you have more time to FINISH THE CARRIERS.

There is a man who knows the subtle hint smile smile smile

Midway Island airfield is a repainted tile with an airbase 3dz which was pared down to just the main runways, laid over it. My first attempts at Midway island were pretty poor, and I had to go back to the drawing board.

There was a volunteer not so long ago to take on the He 177. There's very little prospect of me finishing it this side of retirement.

Yeah, subtle, that's me.

About as subtle as an ME262.

The Invader was an attempt with Flyright at a postwar version for the Vietnam scenario.
