Peter i got your six covered on some of this but some ac listed just aren't going to be made...on the other hand you left out the Spad?

tweaked now for that Lewis...

a couple of Tumas circa 1930s types could reshape those 3dz for some missing allie ac as with the Martinsyde and DH9a not to be mistaken for its earlier variant and...

for the German side the AEG/DFW/LVG all look like copies from a couple of his WWI releases.

the BristolF2 should be on that list if it wasn't for that funky bottom wing but...i'm STILL only in the eyeballing stage for these!

itm some links regarding the Ottoman aircraft, could be slot fillers...

Thanks Alan. The list was just a first off.

You're completely right that some of those a/c aren't likely to get made, so its alternative selections or using lookalikes from JT's extensive range..

The 30sqn Spad looks like a must - have.

Tuma does have a lot of circa 1930s 3dzs to pull from but only a few are worth reshaping from...may consider adding now the RAF Re8.

in general only his HR 3dzs sets are very foregiving even when mix/matching them with simular 3dz by him, if willing to turn a blind eye to any inherit Rs glitches, which if they weren't an issue after all this time shouldn't be now...

after looking more closely it looks like his Albatross C1 is an excellent base 3dz for the AEG/LVG types and the Halberstadt for DFWs (aka Aviatik) with very little shapeshifting, the time consuming problem is always the...

piggybacking/remapping/redo-DM thats so boring. otherwise i could bang out a shape over a weekend and i think i got the skinning part down which helps weed out any of the boring parts i missed, so whenever i got that far? am hopefully? almost done!!!

update! seems the Spad XIII also served in the mideast as well as the Bristol M1 which was relegated to macedonia/palestine/iraq...
Image
after looking at Tumas Morane i think that could be a good 3dzbase for that one

Image
and the Nieuport11 for the Eindecker series
Image
and this VickersFB looks remotely out of the Sopwith family, if we had a Camel? which is possible whenever Tumas finished with the Strutter?

so that narrowed the missing ac list down, now if i can only find the time...

We can use anything that will fit the job with a squint. Any plane we can't get a half-decent lookalike for I'll replace with something we can.
