I just wanted to share some photos of the build phase of the fourth bomber I have built for this series, the mighty, Short Stirling B.Mk.III
At this stage the entire fuselage base was complete along with some primitive looking turrets, rough around the edges but hey, it kinda looked like what I was going for so I carried on, as you can see I've not gone for a custom paint scheme but I have painted large areas in the base paints, I'll later go onto custom and change them to what I want, this saves the tedious process of having yo paint all those tiny annoying wing pieces!
Now we can see I've loosely added some cockpit bracing and added some minor details,
I had by then cut a large hole in the bottom of the fuselage, I spent about 15 mins deciding where to place the bombs and how I would get the bomb bay doors to open after all we don't want any mishaps with those 500 pounders!
And now here she is with most wings done and a lot more detail!
(This is where I'm at now with the build) all that's needed to be done is more details and the wing covers and most importantly THE LANDING GEAR!
And this is the same stage but from underneath so you can see the bombardiers position!
BROUGHT TO YOU BY
I do not take requests sorry, and I have given up building tanks untill proper wheels and engines are added, it would be a fun challenge though, I've been thinking about building the Kv-1 - 6 tanks someday, so I might see what I can do, unfortunately my SP is slightly broken at the moment so I may not be able to, :) quick tip, never stop improving your designs, untill you feel they are perfect, I have been working on this bomber for over a month now and it's still not finished :) @Mcllulen
OK idea. you should make a kv-5 tank. ive been working on one but i cant seem to get it right. i would love to see what you could do. seeing as the bomber here looks AWESOME i figure you would get it perfect.
It would do a butt ton of damage to a tiger.... At least they don't actualy code in the fact that if you fired the gun to the side (if on uneven ground) the recoil would flip the tank over lol one KV-2 immobilized a tiger by hitting it with one shot, it killed all of its crew.... And the shell did not even penetrate
@AnarchistAerospaceIndustries
@CDUflappy the KV-2 is a strong tank for a reason, plus in Blitz we don't have Jap heavies., only mediums and lights, even then they're really easy to kill. The KV-2 isn't going to be near fed because that's how the REAL tank was, a 152mm shell is GOING to do a butt ton of damage to a light armored tank
@CDUflappy but, it has waknesses if your gun has good pen you can get through the side, the turret is nice and flat and all of the mini turrets are weakspots, and if arty hits it, it goes boom same for all jap heavies they are big slow targets and that's why they are meant to be balenced, also spg's used to be an amazing thing to have on your team, but after Map changes and accuracy nerds (pot luck if they hit anithing) they have become useless.... Wargaming said 2016 is the year they are going to fix WOT I don't play PC because blitz has no arty and the maps are how they used to be before they got turned into corridor fighters, it's 7vs7 quick battles, and just to annoy you I'm gonna say this, cannot wait for OI ;) lol
Seriously if a certain tank to me feels overpowered I look it up on gameplay videos (QuickyBaby shows you how to kill every tank he reviews) I look at its armour profile and weakspots and I also grind it out in game to find out how it is played, where it will go, how to avoid it and how exactly to kill it, so grind out the OI and watch an OI reveiw will be worth your time dude, you may be interested in this
Can't wait for multiplayer for there to be tank wars and off road racing and dogfights

@XVIindustries that cool! Hey I play blitz to
Thx, that is because I am PlanesOfOld and I know how to use wings for decoration lol, I also have passion for aircraft :) and wouldn't show this if I didn't think I gave it justice :) @JetstreamAeronauticalEngineering
And if any of you were wondering why you hadn't seen this sooner, it's because I was playing world of tanks blitz.... And now you ask what made you stop...... Sigh.....
Had just got ace tanker in my Type 5 Chi Ri then I saw my Friend MeetThyDoom was online so I asked him if we could platoon (cause I was getting bored of playing the chi ri) I suggested we played our E25's so we did... as soon as Doom was spotted... He got one shotted by the enemy KV-2 mhenewhile I was being a little more cautious on the other side of the map when I ran into everything but the enemy Kv-2 I stayed in position and kept firing and eventually killing 3 of them and dealing a ton of critical module damage... My team to be honest were complete donkeys they could not tell their arse from their elbow without the help of a map a flashlight and the how to tell the difference between your arse and your elbow for dummies book, they all went single file towards the KV-2 who had a monster game! His team helped him a bit but he did most of the work anhialating my whole team then I was alone VS 3 enemies I did more damage to one and killed him. But then I got one shotted by the KV-2
I got EXTREMELY ANGRY >:( and said bye I'm gonna play a single player game now to world of tanks....
