@Helicopterboy you should lol
Yaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyy
@AstonMartin145 Sure!
Ok dokey
And make a number next to the navy symbol like: G4
I'm also making a B-29 in the olive crab colors,would you like to help me?
@AstonMartin145 You'll see!
I hope it has better paint schemes.
Well,Roger dat
@AstonMartin145 Well, funny for ya to ask that, I am doing it right now! Want a sneak peek?
Could you fix the wings and change the paint scheme? I think it would look really nice if you do update it
@EpicPigster1 no problemo and sorry to be late 🙂
@hellcatz The Avenger was capable of torpedo bombing or conventional bombing. It handled like a truck, meaning it was helpless against enemy fighters. The only bomber that served a fighter role was the SBD Dauntless, which was used as a escort to other SBDs when F4Fs were in short supply. I am planning to collab with Weaverfish for a V2 version of my Avenger, with torpedos, sto wings and loads of new features! Stay tuned!
@EpicPigster1 Isn't a a Torpedo Bomber Fighter? Where are the torpedos?
@EpicPigster1 Anytime m8!
Thanks for the upvote @ForeverPie !!!
@Weaverfish Sounds good!
@EpicPigster1 If you make a new avenger version with torpedoes from the new update, give me a shout and we can work some magic
@AndrewGarrison that's one awesome looking Avenger then! Such a cool looking plane this thing, isn't it?
@EpicPigster1 I can't honestly remember! I can't remember colors very well.....I think it was similar to what you have here.
@AndrewGarrison Nice! Was it painted in the livery I used or was it the standard three tone paint? (Thanks for the upvote by the way, it means alot to me!)
Nice build. I just recently saw one of these at an air show at Scott AFB in the midwest.
No prob. @EpicPigster1
@WeeBabySeamus @AndrewGarrison @HellFireKoder I'd love if a dev could check this plane out, it would mean alot to me :)
@Maxwell1 thanks!
