It's been a busy two or three days doing painting and model adjustments to convert our 'special' F-111F to an F-111G.
Below are the very latest renders of an Aussie Pig.. Enjoy

Making room in the hangar for this one ! Looks good.

Will this model show the Pave Tack Pod? We built the big Beryllium stabilization mirror. The biggest single piece of Beryllium that had been ever made.
Would you like to ride in my big green tractor?.

Hi David,
Damn nice work, looks amazing indeed, love the panel-detail
Back to the PBY..
Ah, VC is being kept quiet at the moment as we're having to rework it for the G model. At the moment it has what appears to be an A model configuration to the cockpit..so it needs a fair bit of work. As for other paints... this one is the first one we've done so far... with a whopping 995Mb paintkit, it's taking me a while to upload.

Any Dump n' Burn effects?
This looks very high detail. Is it the same painter that painted the default F-14 paints?
can't wait she's gorgeous!!
I don't want to sound critical, so please take this as constructive, but in the first shot the nose doesn't quite look right. The F-111 has a very distinctive nose profile and maybe its the angle the shot was taken? But to my eyes it's missing something, but I can't put my finger on it.
Looks fantastic, been waiting for a new Pig for ages!!
Just found this pic (might be worth flippin it) - see how the nose right at the end is curved upwards more at the end.

You have a point...might need to address that...shouldn't be to hard though

So, after reading the previous posts, can we infer the package is going to include an A, F, and G model?
thats really well spotted i wouldn't have noticed that but i agree its not the right shape it almost reminds me of a duckbill lol but this one is just too pointed!! i hope you can eject the pod on it too!! wouldn't that be great.. here's a challenge put an engine in it so you can steer yourself to dry land if you land in the sea lool !!
Awesome David and team, I cannot wait to fly this baby!

yup yup. the nose be slightly more squished and upturned on the real ones.. More than one reason they called em "pigs""
Hey Smoothy?? Can you do a "Miss Piggy" livery for me?? Pweeeeaaaaassse???
Looks nice David!
For now, I'm just enjoying my Vulcan- it's keeping me busy :ernae:
Brilliant! A must have for me.
Since, I believe, that the RAAF pigs were ex-FB-111's, can we expect that variant?
Bob
For what it's worth.....
Because of this the RAAF F-111G's have a distinctive indentation on the nose just fwd of the windscreen where the FB-111's celestial navigation system was placed.
But.... that could be delving into the realm of rivet counting - so my apologies in advance
She looks great and I can't what until she comes out of the hangar.

Regarding the nose, yes, the F-111 has a significant dip on the underside from the front of the nosewheel doors which then steadily curves upwards through to the end of the nosecone.
Our model currently doesn't feature this rather unique identifying feature of the aircraft, however it won't be a problem to alter the mesh accordingly.
As for variants, we're doing the F-111G, rather than do a bunch of different models, we've decided to focus all our efforts on perfecting one variant and seeing what the future holds for 'expansion' packs...
It is early days though, but it's shaping up very nicely indeed.
One thing we do want to let people know is that I've got 10 slots open for the F-111 Dev Team. Those with fanatical interest (i.e. F-111 Rivet Counters and/or engineering or piloting experience on the F-111 would be very much appreciated.)
I'm also looking to subcontract the avionics coding for the F-111. specifically in relation to the Autopilot/CDU and MFD systems. Anyone with XML/C++ experience in FSX is MORE than welcome to contact me via PM.
Same with the dev team...if you're interested in assisting in this fantastic project, please PM me with your details.
Regards
David.
