Hi Jamie I think your planes are fantastic! Getting down to details; I am most impressed with the cannon on the Dundee C 30 Dingo Zepplin Hunter and the undercarriage on the Macchi S 42 Canard Float Plane.

Very cool to see you around .space again, Jamie! These Crimson Skies mocs are pure fun. My favorite is the Dingo, there's just something totally awesome in my mind about a blue assymetrical flying tank. A very original design. I'll be honest, I'm (...)

Really nice builds, Jamie. My favorite is the Dingo. I love the big cannon with the feed going into the side—great detail. Thanks for sharing. (2 URLs) (20 years ago, 30-Apr-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military, FTX)

Cool designs! The modifications to the old models are a nice touch, and the new ones are well done--even if one is a "homage". I especially like the design of the gyrocopter, if only because it's a few steps away from being steampunk. ...hmm...seems (...) (20 years ago, 30-Apr-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military)

Jamie I love these planes! All of them! IMO they are the best Crimson Skies MOCs I saw. I like the fact that the 2 new ones share the same wing architecture, it gives them the family link they need.
