I think you have plenty of time to perfect.
Yes sir. Now retired, I can do 4-10 hours a day on the project depending on what's happening.I think you have plenty of time to perfect.
Several have asked about needed pictures prior to visiting a museum or air show.
Here are two pictures I need for texturing wheels. The examples attached cannot be used except as reference pics.
The pictures need to be taken at a true 45* angle to the wheel (perpendicular to the wheels), be shadow free. No direct sunlight is best.
Worse case useable is at least 1/4 of the wheel is shadow free. I can use 1/4 of teh wheel to make the full texture.
Thanks for any help in advance.
Attached pics okay for reference but not for use as textures.
I am less than 30 min from this one:

I can go get pics on Thursday if necessary. Are there any other external features you want shots of? I'm sure Matt will have a lot to ask for.

Sure thing!
Progress on main gear, doors, animations, flaps, and other minor things.
I found this in my photos, not really what you asked for but you can use it for detail work on the nose gear.

Good reference pic; thanks
No Sir, it is I who can never show how much I owe for the enjoyment of flying the superb aircraft you have already blessed us with!
Nigel, I appreciate all the efforts for bringing us a super sound system for this project. Thanks to all the contibutors to-date for bringing the raw materials together.

The way I see it is that I still have a balance to pay on the A-26 Invader and the Grumman Tigercat.
The definitive sounds are still to come. Promise! :salute:

Found the airfoil data for the S2 Family. Should be interesting figuring out the contribution of the flying saucer....

Excelenté! We look forward to your work on this Tom. I hope to have you something to test with next week.
Went out and got some pictures today. Shes a little rough around the edges but if you like any ill send you full size images. Caught a picture of the S-2T also on a fire today.

Thank you; Please send the full size and I'll see how they turn out. Maybe I can smooth out some of the rough edges.
I just got back, I got some gear shots as well so you'll have lots to choose from I'm just waiting for them to upload to my flickr account. I'll post the link when they are done. Here are some examples.

Bad Flickr!
Check my link, there might be some others that are closer to centered, i just picked the first two off my camera. I think this one is the closest to square on:

Excellent! Some great detailed photos. I can use all of them for either reference or textures to some extent. Greatly appreciated.
Thanks to you and Tankerguy for your extra efforts.
Main and Nose Gear taking shape. I have the basic components in place; now to flesh them out.
Its so good its...obscene!
