the uniforms feature a bit of black (shoulders, face mask etc) but yeah i was thinking more of a dark matt grey as oppose to black.

Haha, love it!

Just thinking about the Starfighter - it was pointed out to me when I made my :enemy: Skystriker that the enemy tech is mostly fantasy-based. This may be more in keeping with :sas:

i know, but this is such a ridiculous plane, it's basically just one big jet engine & it doesnt look like a real plane! a lot of people seem to convert the rattler for red shadows & thats basically an A10 tank buster!
i was thinking about making a plane for the baron using a 2 seat WWII german fighter jet, the shadows were always so nazi influenced i thought it would be funny!

this is the single seat version, but you get the general idea!

Oh, I think that's an ace idea! He is, after all, the Baron! And he loves his red. It's perfect!

the me262 / red baron... I was only messing around, ive used lots of the same ideas as other people here, knowingly or unknowingly....


I remember when I was making my "copy" of the barons red shadow hornet helicopter I thought I was dead clever to use the shadowtrak wheels, then when I looked he had already done the same thing and I didnt notice it....
