  1. The later Bf 109 versions, like the G-6 or G-14 are usually neglected - Most replicas I've seen are usually based on the E-4. How about an He 111 for a challenge? It's a bomber that's usually forgotten, outshone by the American four-engined ones..
  2. Yeah, the tail is positioned wrongly, and the degree of sweep is much higher than what I portrayed. I have a feeling, though, that the Mk3 Cockpit may also play a part - It barely resembles a 727's nose. And God would I want to do bowling with the aircraft I have now too.. The B747 is 394 parts, B777 is 147, A330 is 198, 757's 159, A380's 259, MD-80's 123, and B767 is 137. That totals to.. 1417 parts. Kind of a far cry from yours!
  3. Oh my god, someone shares my sentiment with this. I honestly doubt that there won't be tons of players classifying "stock" as having the DLC in their install and craft, or at least it would end up being part of the majority of people's creations. ..To think how much more serious and beautiful the game would look if all the parts were up to that quality of modeling..
  4. So, uh, I haven't posted here in a long time.. I made this video back in October and pretty much forgot to post it, but once my airliners are done I'll have to start revamping the thread (with this included in it.) I revamped my DC-8, mostly focusing in the wings and engines. I'm just happy it can at least be distinguished from a B707. I did a few changes on the Boeing B777, most of which involved making the wings not rip, though some focus was placed into the wingtip rakes and making the tail thinner. Then the A320 was made to work, though it kinda looks like an A319. Puny, isn't it.. And the B727 was also revamped. There's something about it, though, that doesn't make it look right.. And to top it off.. a lagfest?
  5. All I'm hoping is that it's cheap enough for me to buy..
  6. Messerschmitt Bf 109 for one; It looks like one of the few aircraft that a non-aircraft enthusiast can distinguish from, say, a Spitfire and a P-51D, and it's also pretty badass-looking. Would've put the Fw 190 in here as well but that thing keeps betraying me in War Thunder. Boeing B777-300, because it looks sleeker than so many other airliners, and not to mention it's GE90s; And Boeing B-29 Superfortress. Honestly, only the Heinkel He 111 looks more fear-mongering as a WW2 bomber, in contrast to the B-17 which seems to be on the lines of pure beauty. I would've put it here but my post's already pic-heavy.
  7. 5/10 I'm now starting to see you a lot in the Forum Games.
  8. In my personal opinion; -Eeloo is color blue, though it would be extra-difficult to get there anyway -I can agree with you on that one, Moho's largely uninteresting yet difficult to get to, never visited it either -The Mun's right in front of Kerbin, and a test of skill for the beginner -Minmus is ice cream in your planet's backyard -Yet, at least Laythe is worth going to, or maybe Tylo, or maybe Jool itself is an interesting sight, and it's right there -- It's easy to get captured by it once you get the Delta-V anyway -Ike is next to Duna, Gilly is next to Eve It would be more interesting to learn asteroid capture, and a 1km deep canyon just doesn't do it for me. Also, it's a gray rock that's somewhat bland in comparison to its relative remoteness, but again, it's my personal opinion.
  9. Dres is in the location where it would be easier to visit the more interesting Duna, or just a tiny bit easier than the Joolian system, which in itself is much more interesting than so many of the planets in KSP. And I doubt starting a Dres Awareness thread helps things at all.
  10. 2/10.. I haven't seen you before. Nice Gene Kranz profile picture though.
  11. 3/10 Hi, nice to meet you too!
  12. What, so you want me to reconstruct the entire thing with steel plates? The ship's a massive deck of cards. Every single wing part's connected to each other. Of course the entire thing will get destroyed if you hammer a torpedo or an iceberg in its direction. Christ, It's not the Bismarck.
  13. Well, I've been trying to improve the Titanic bit by bit, but it gets tiring to work with something that's not getting much recognition.. So I decided to work on my airliners for a bit. I reduced parts on my B747-100/200 via autostrutting; I started work on the engines of the Airbus A320; And i fixed up the tail and engines of the Boeing 737-800. I worked on the Baggage Carrier as a crap ton of people have requested; I have no pictures, unfortunately. And that's it for this weekend.
  14. Something I love about this comment just as much as it's content is the fact that it's pretty much as long as the devnotes themselves.
  15. And coldly, too. It does.. though, to be fair, it would probably sink faster too if the Titanic had collided head-on. The replica can't sink for crap.. the lowest I've gotten it was submerging the forecastle. I haven't, but I did see scenes from it in videos (often imposed with the song Sleeping Sun, for whatever reason.) It was depicted as an ocean liner, for some reason, even though its only real career was that of being a troop and hospital ship before it sank. If my memory serves me right, it struck a mine, contrary to what the movie depicted, though. It was the Lusitania that was sunk by torpedo.
  16. Hi, is there a possible way that the decals could be enlargened? Tweakscale doesn't seem to show the tweakable used to enlargen it, although it does for the other parts. Thanks! I appreciate the work and dedication you put into this.
  17. Eyup.. and the black parts of the funnel removed, and big-ass lifeboat cranes on the deck. I added an iceberg as part of the downloads - as per @Heckspress's request and updated the ship - Namely, I fixed up the bridge -- It's no longer separated from the rest of the deck.
  18. I can confirm this. Also, great way to finish off a somewhat okay-ish year!
  19. I tried to with Editor Extensions, but the entire deck extending from the first funnel forward is connected to what serves as the "floor" of the bridge, and trying to offset the thing apparently can cause the structure to fail and blow up. Sorry ;__; God. Looks hard, but I will try. What do you mean by funny?
  20. R.M.S Titanic (this thing was a pain in the ass to deal with, y'all better like it lmao) Overview: This ship took me four weeks of construction to complete. I think I could safely say that this was my proudest creation yet. eh whatever it's for blowing up, can't sink tho RMS Titanic was a British passenger liner that sank in the North Atlantic Ocean in the early morning of 15 April 1912, after colliding with an iceberg during her maiden voyage from Southampton to New York City. Of the 2,224 passengers and crew aboard, more than 1,500 died, making it one of the deadliest commercial peacetime maritime disasters in modern history. The largest ship afloat at the time it entered service, the RMS Titanic was the second of three Olympic class ocean liners operated by the White Star Line, and was built by the Harland and Wolff shipyard in Belfast. Instructions for usage: 1. Somehow bring it into the water (lest it somehow doesn't shatter) or use VesselMover to set it down. 2. Start the engines by staging. 3. Change direction by yaw, and Custom01 reverses the engines. However, it's often slow to reverse (just like the real life ship..) It travels at an average of 15 m/s. Specifications: Parts: 744 Mass: 289.151 tons Height: 24.0m Width: 9.3m Length: 81.5m (1/3 Scale) Images: And for comparison: Accompanying (and obligatory) Iceberg Replica: Requested by a bunch of users, and designed to be used with my Titanic replica (for the more morbid among you). It’s based on a picture taken by the chief steward of the German liner Prinz Aldabert on the morning of the disaster, thought to have been one of the likely culprits for the collision.
