Do you design them in Corel or buy them ready to cut and glue?
"Take the cylinder out of my kidneys, The connecting rod out of my brain, my brain, From out of my arse take the camshaft, And assemble the engine again."
I usually redraw models that I have downloaded (buy and free) in vector format then add textures in raster. Attached is an EV that I designed, I shamelessly used OFF for the texture design. By the way, the engine does turn with the prop.
Ooooo, pretty! What scale is that? 1:33? Would like to see more of these in a separate thread as not to disturb Robert and his work. I'm fascinated by what amazing stuff can be done with cardboard. Are you familiar with Halinski models? They are insanely detailed.

The progress on this airfield has been rather slow due to available time and some redo's of terrain. I suspect I won't have this ready to place under your WOFF tree for Christmas. Hopefully it will be ready before New Year. Apologies for being too hopeful, there is much more work involved than I anticipated.
Best Regards;

It's been awhile, but Filescamp is progressing well. Just some more trees on the Farm to do and the village of Le Hameau just behind Izel airfield which itself needs a few small changes.

Tnx Lou. I appreciate the comment coming from a master! (Must not let that go to my head...still lots to learn)

Folks, I am happy to announce that the development of Filscamp Farm, Izel Les Hameau and the surrounding village is almost complete. I just have to clean up some files, assemble the mod for release. It should be done by the end of the weekend if real life doesn't get too much in my way. I do have a busy weekend schedule so no promises.
Once I release the standalone version, I will incorporate it into the Consolidated Airfields Mod.
Here are some teaser pics of less than desirable quality. I extracted them from a vid, but I think you will get the idea. They are all summer time shots. I will post winter ones if time allows.

Thanks Ace. Hopefully wrap up the mod and send it to Sandbagger before the weekend is over.
Cheers.

Great news, Robert! Thx for your effort. Would you, pls, place these new airfileds together with RAF Louverts new Verdun forts and Lille citadelle into your Consolidated airfileds mod? I am ready to convert this updated Consolidated airfields mod to Populated airfileds mod v1.4 and enjoy your master works. Thx.

That is my next step Jara. I will PM you when it is complete.

It's looking super Robert, can't wait to give it a try! I may be able to release my finished Havrincourt Wood mod tomorrow as well, (at long last), so it could turn out to be a very WOFF moddy weekend.
Amazing stuff, Robert. My did pilot, however, will transfer away from Filescamp after one or two more patrol, so I'm shattered. This will be a great addition to WOFF, together with Lou's Havrincourt Wood mod, which I'm also anxiously awaiting.
Great work, Robert (and Lou and Jara)! Everybody really appreciates all of your hard work. The new fields all look fantastic and I can't wait to see them in the campaign.
