(...) Well I'm kinda just goin on looks with these and I'm not too worried about areodynamics. Plus around the WW2 era there where a few plane designs that had the off center engine set-up. Of course none of them had a giant cannon :). (...) I never (...) (21 years ago, 2-May-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military, FTX)

(...) Good to be around. I never really left, just fell into lurking mode since work and other commitments have taken up a lot of my time. (...) Thanks on the kudos. I hear ya on the engine thing, but a few of the float planes around the WW1 era had (...) (21 years ago, 2-May-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military, FTX)

(...) Thank you Gil. The added armaments on the Tornado and the Gyro are a nice improvement compared to the previous "antannae" guns I had on them. The old nozzle thingie from the Slave 1 is a very versatile and nice looking piece. The shell idea I (...) (21 years ago, 2-May-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military, FTX)

(...) Thanks JP. The Canard was inspired by Porco Rosso as I stated before and a little by this (URL) plane>. The landing gear isn't the best, but I did want it to have some so it could land in some remote waterless area. If you can get the game, do (...)

(...) Hi Soren, nice tank! The way you've done the turret, probably the only viable way to raise the gun would be with a micromotor in the turret. This would mean running a wire through the slew ring, which would mean continuous 360 degree rotation (...) (21 years ago, 1-May-04, to lugnet.build.military, FTX)

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. Thanks for some great MOCs and lots of (...) (21 years ago, 30-Apr-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military, FTX)
