I spotted this little beaut in a Kiwi real world paint, so I thought I'd do her for FS9...

EXCELLENT! I was missing an underside shot! Many many thanks!

As you can see - I need the undersides!

Ooh Cbirs, beautiful paintjobs!

Gimmie Gimmie Gimmie! They both would definitely qualify as subjects for this months vintage screenie comp...

What model Tiger Moth is that by the way?

What model? Warwick Carter and Garry J Smith - Go visit here

And "gimme"? After the screen compy's over of course. :lol:

Why do you think I am repainting her? :plane:

Nice paint job - but it would look better if you put it on a decent Tiger model

While Warwick Carter is to be applauded for tackling a Tiger Moth model, it is quite deformed in many respects. In particular the nose profile is completely wrong. There is a great Tiger Moth from FS2002 by John Woodside (dh82tgm2.zip on Flightsim.com) that still works well in FS9.

But keep on with your beautiful paint jobs regardless. Who knows, maybe we could have a Tiger Club fly-in at the NZFF aero club one day

Oooh.... gowan... pop my bubble, will ya! :lol:

There's still a lot of work in getting these skins right anyway as there was no "white" base paintkit. I also have the Bill Lyons Tiger - I might take a look at changing.

No offense taken I hope

The paint job is beautifully executed - the model is what is at fault <_<

Once you have won the screen comp

, could you be persuaded to part with your white base paint I wonder... there are dozens of Tigers I would love to see flying around in FS9.

None taken - I have a sense of humour that grey up with "the Goonshow", "It's a Square World", "Monty Python" and "Mr Bean".

I don't know about the white skin - there may be a copyrigth reason. But as I am in contact with Garry, I'll ask.

By the way - it's not a brill conversion - I have to do some work on the shading yet.

I have been using Bill Lyons for about a year and did not know of Warwick Carter's model untill you linked me.

I dont know why Jenks doesn't like it because I love it! It's heaps better than Bills one which I think was originally fs2002 payware... anyway, keep up the good work! I look foward to the download link at the end of the month!
