Well I took some time off of building ships (not like I was pumping a lot out) and made a few more Crimson Skies planes for the Northern Knights. I blame these latest builds on my using some of my free time playing Crimson Skies on X-Box Live.

The first is:

The Dundee C 30 Dingo Zepplin Hunter.

It’s basiclly a flying cannon.

Then we have:

The Macchi S 42 Canard Float Plane.

This is my blatant rip off of Porco Rosso. There is just something about float planes and his plane in particular that is just cool.

And then I made some upgrades to my previous 2
planes. They just needed some bigger weapons.

The Avro F202 Tornado.

I just rebuilt the guns to be a tad bit bigger.

and:

The Aimes AeroCorp Gyroplane.

This plane is the smallest of them all but it needed some lethal punch. So I added some Tesla Guns to it.

Post Mod

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. Great use of colors, creative designs (hmmmm, the (...) (21 years ago, 30-Apr-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military, FTX)

		Re: 2 More Crimson Skies Moc's and a few upgrades
(...) Wow. I loved the first incarnations of the Tornado and the Gyro, but the additions to them have really fleshed them out from a great moc to a wonderful one. The Tornado's new angled guns are excellent as they really have that m-60 look to them (...) (21 years ago, 30-Apr-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military, FTX)

		Re: 2 More Crimson Skies Moc's and a few upgrades
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 (...) (21 years ago, 30-Apr-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military)

		Re: 2 More Crimson Skies Moc's and a few upgrades
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) (21 years ago, 30-Apr-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military, FTX)

		Re: 2 More Crimson Skies Moc's and a few upgrades
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 (...)

		Re: 2 More Crimson Skies Moc's and a few upgrades
(...) Might want to consider putting a pusher engine behind the cannon, the off center thrust of just one engine would make this beast VERY hard to fly. (...) What are those? Have I not gotten far enough in my levels on the PC to have seen them? (...) (21 years ago, 30-Apr-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military, FTX)

		Re: 2 More Crimson Skies Moc's and a few upgrades
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)

		Re: 2 More Crimson Skies Moc's and a few upgrades
(...) These are the most awesome CS mocs I've seen. Especially the Tornado, it's perfect! I keep coming back to gawk at it. Cheers, (URL) Sci-Fi LEGO> (21 years ago, 3-May-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military, FTX)
