Wow... over ten years now... Jeeze..

A few things I found the other day while poking around my PC looking to clean it out.

Enjoy the memories.

OFF Propaganda poster


Camel when it was being worked on as a WIP


The first look at what the towns were going to look at.


Some more fun Propaganda posters...




All the best,

OvS

Despite the reported age the shot of the town STILL looks very sweet.

Well, it means:
Unconfirmed is killing the Restrictted!
Okay, but who is "The Restrictted"?
...I guess it is some Zen-Quote with a deeper meaning behind it. ;-)

From the grafics POV, although one can only say that the landscape is better in WOFF, I still consider the one in OFF more immersive, less "generic", mostly because of the numbers of villages (you can be sure that most airfields were in the vicinity of a village or a hamlet)...I even could find the name of villages that were actually randomly distributed in the OFF scenery , as WM told me when WOFF was released biggrin .

Wow, fantastic stuff, from before I got involved.

Lou's BOC/BWOC stuff and Christmas posts are simply the best. Others have done write ups as well. I can't remember them now, but if they revive them for us, and post them, We can save them for future reference.
