Excellent looking plane and I'm happy you're planning to make a SAAF version as well! biggrin_o.gif

Same here. Model looks really good by the way thumbs-up.gif

BTW: Are you the same Nordwind from Militaryphotos.net?

Quote[/b] ]BTW, the detail is amazing....Looks like SCARs Sukhois have some competition!

hm i dont think so..

scars su30mk looks like treated with somre iron rod.

the polyflow is very crude and as a matter of fact

the topolgy/geometry suffers very much

the nice textures might compensate this

but putting that smoking hot saab gripen

on the same level like scars su30 is simply ridiculous..

you simply can see how well the gripen is researched.

the polyflow makes you see that its aerodynamic biggrin_o.gif

in germany youd said "das geht ab wie´n zäpfchen" biggrin_o.gif

however

very neat gripen

btw are those textures photo based or scratch made?

looke pretty nice smile_o.gif

I can understand what you mean from a modeller's point of view, but to the ordinary pleb like myself, who wouldnt judge a model by the wire underneath, the Su-30 is one of the nicest planes in OFP

Well, thanks! They're made mostly from scratch. There are some photographic elements in small details and the cockpit.

The gripen.com image database was an enormous help getting all the details right. I have some 300 high res pictures that I looked at; there's never enough for a complex machine like this.

While on the other hand doing Flanker models will be a pain for me since I probably got the majority of the online shots, and a few reference books, but that's not enough by a long shot, but then again, it's gonna have to do.

Sorry to dig up a slightly old thread, but any progress on this? Is it just going to be for ArmA?

EDIT: Just PMed Gux (probably should have done that in the first place. Apparently he's finished it and its being released for ArmA pending the release of the modding tools)
