Let me reword my suggestion: The Bismarck had swastikas painted on her bow and stern so any German aircraft that spotted her (friendly aircraft) wouldn't mistake her for a British ship, such as a King George V class battleship. I understand that a swastika may not be the best idea for an addition, so a Maltse Cross would likely be a good alternative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon144 Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 (edited) More stable and powerful coaxial version of the minicopter using a bearing that fits into that single structural fuselage. It's coming together. And I promise I will release the new Mega-truck sooner or later just trying not to over saturate the forum this week.

That depends on the camo you want the ship based on. Correct me if I'm wrong, but; The Bismarck was painted like this before Operation Rheinübung Did i spell it right? possessing the Swastikas. Mid-operation, it was painted over. And note that below is her paint scheme when she battled with HMS Hood. The swastikas were painted over, so I suggest you base it on that. ...I just remembered your Bismarck was already released and I was out of likes for the day. Crap.

I know there was some painting done to make the ship harder to spot once it was damaged, but I didn't remember what exactly was done. I'll be honest, the small amount of knowledge I have about naval warfare (that doesn't involve naval aviation) largely has to do with submarines. You learn something new every day, I guess.

SaturnianBlue Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 @pTrevTrevs I think it was in Norway then painted it over. I have an interesting contrast with you, the knowledge I have of Naval Warfare tends to be of surface ships. @Columbia I'll release the version of the Bismarck soon, and a reduced parts version and the fake crane I made. But yeah, the current release is the one during the fight with HMS Hood, whose Keel I plan on laying soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Castille7 Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 (edited) One of a few projects I am working on, this one is The V-Copter, it's name comes from VTOL & Helicopter. It's handling fairly well right now but not releasing it until further testing and tweaks. The looks take some getting use to because of it's upper rotor not being there but it's growing on me the more I fly it.

Most of what I know about naval things is because of my fascination with the Titanic back then and the research I was forced to do of the Bismarck and it's paint schemes while working on a model of it. Other than that.. not much. Can't wait to see the low part count version! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Columbia Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 Once again, I was fooling around and experimenting in KSP, as I always do. Easter Sunday's great. I decided to attempt making a B-17 that had an interior for the Pilot and Co-Pilot, and briefly considered an entire whole interior, but realized that that would've only worked if the cargo bay was really, really big and the part count would've been insane. I mean, it would be a bummer having a custom cockpit when the one thing you couldn't do with it was put a pilot in it.. Radiator Panels were honestly a godsend for aesthetics, there's no need to resort to the bulky wing parts. I started by taking off the main 3.75m tank that was the root part of the entire thing, and replaced it with a structural panel with a beam stretching throughout. Then I added the first radiators.. I deliberately misspelled "Fortress" in the name so I don't accidentally overwrite the working B-17. Attaching the final ones, and strutting. Work continues, I still have to work on the interior. And I'm not the best at KSP furniture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed! Panels of any type are the best KSP building part by far, they have a million uses! That is why I am so excited by the new larger flat panel solar panels! 15 minutes ago, Jon144 said: It's happening guys... Only 900 parts so far too What's happening? The death of your PC?
