Just a few more in-game VC screenshots - in colour this time. : )

Not finished yet, still more details left to do such as placards and other small things, some of it dependant on how many more polys can be squeezed in, but once they're done it'll be possible to move over and do the exterior texturing. One view here shows the view out of the pilot's side window, and while it shows one of the Merlins it also shows an un-textured wing, for example....

These cockpit colours are those most often used by Trans Canada Airlines (TCA) and the RCAF, whereas BOAC appears to have favoured a gray and navy blue layout. The BOAC model will have a different VC rear area as those models do not appear to have had cargo compartments on the starboard side.

The navigator's table folded down to allow crew to enter and exit, plus allow cargo to be loaded.

Nice preview pics. It's great to see you working on propliners, an oft over looked area in fs, with the exception of all of the freeware versions made for FS9. But seeing them done to this LOD, is really nice. Thanks for hitting this niche in the FS world.

Mike this another crowning achievement. The attention to detail is way above WOW! You've always been up there among the best payware developers, but you just a took another huge step. We are a very, very blessed community to have such a great bunch of devs and painters in our forum. AWESOME!!!:applause:
