I guess now's a good time to re-post those photo guidelines...
I'll do this every now and then so everyone is up to speed.

The photos should be the following...

A) The aircraft modeled must be that of an actual aircraft.

B) The model should be a "SCALE" model.
meaning...
It should look like the aircraft that is being modeled. If the real plane had strut and wheel covers... so should the model(it should'nt have music wire struts). There should be no rx antennas showing in the photo. If the real plane had a 3 or 4 blade prop, and this is a picture of that plane(model) on the ground? Then the model should have a 3 or 4 blade prop, not a Zinger 20x10. etc...etc.

Think of this as a kind of "Top Gun" of photo threads.

And finally, that brings us to the most confusing of the requirements of the photo.
...C) The photo should be "of an angle that you would actually be photographing the real aircraft" or "as the eye perceives it"
...meaning...Don't post the picture of that beautiful Mustang with a guy holding it during engine run ups.

Thanks to all for participating...it's going great.

Yup... looks like that time again indeed. Thanks Phillybaby, and SDC.

You are my hero.
Now that, my friends, is forcefully hoisting this thread back on track, and "raising the bar" in the process.
Outstanding.
Tell us, or just me , about your cockpit. Love the buckles on the belts. Brass? Handmade?
Beautiful work, mate!

Don't remember exactly the time on the cockpit, about 2 to 3 mnths, (on and off)
The buckles are made from thin litho plate, and some pieces of music wire, easy to make actually.
Thanks again for the compliments guys!

Regards,
Gert

Status: offline 		This is my new Sea Fury, modelled after a local one that was destroyed in a fatal crash 5 months after the owner let me into his hangar with my 2 year old to get documentation and detail photos. I'm sorry that I won't get to show him my "copy" of his plane.

The P-40 in the last picture only has two prop blades.
The real ones had three,
Right?
But I really love the picture.
And something like that is pretty hard to change

Status: offline 		Well guys... surely some fantastic phots and planes... and this thread is just GREaT!

I try to post two pics of two of my planes - i´ve been looking, and there is no feets, no high grass, no antenna, nobody near my planes....

So here they are:

At first, my Piper Warrior, spans 213cm, weigth 6,5 kg - engine OS FS 120 Surpass:

Short at final for the last trip to day...




Then my old Tiger Moth spans 150cm, enginge OS FS 48 Surpass

Also for the last flight that day



Thanks to Kasper Holger for taking thes pics

By the way... ive tried to make a site with a sort of the same rules, as described in here. So far its only in Danish, but i really woul like pics from some of your guys. The onle rules ive got for posting pics, is that there has to be a picture of the prottype/original plane - and then at least one of the model . Look at www.skalafly.dk (its wery new so far )

Regards Scaleflyerdk
