Default RE: AFPD Lancaster: Work in Progress

Hi all, join with me drinking a half bottle of champagne!

I wanted the Lancaster to be at 1:1 scale relative to AFPD. But I had a lot of doubts that I would get there. It really is big at 31 metres wingspan. Compare it to the True Scale Antonov AN2 in the second image.
Then I've loaded the model with a whole heap of fine detail - taking the polygon count well past the normal. Would my display frame rate disappear?

Well, it's here at 1:1 scale and without any noticeable hit to my frame rate!!

But only a half bottle. It does fly just - like a very drunken duck; I haven't started on the TMD file yet. But I can't make any promises yet.

But here it is - the MIGHTY LANCASTER.
Enjoy
Mike
