Why, the PBN-1 mod of course!

It's still in beta. No gun positions yet and I think there will be no/are no flaps.

The void is a mess. This one, just to bring the template up to mediocre, is gonna take a LOT of work.

many years ago ..." o/~

Yeah, that works.

Anywhy ...

I really should be doing something more useful, but the whole fam damily is sick so I'm piddlin' with the Nomad. It might not seem as if I've done much, but the void really does need to be completely redone. This pic was made after at least eight more hours of pixel pushin'.

Hey guys, don't sell the Cat short!

She carries 4000# of bombs.

True, she does it at the blistering speed of 140 kts,

but that's only ten kts slower than the Kate

and ten WHOLE kts faster than a Cessna 150!!!


DUDE!

AND it was tube and rag and NOT a spamcan. ;)

Heeere vee zee zhe female Catalina drrragging herself ponderously back frrrom her spawning area vhere she had a life und death strrruggle vis a male Catalina that vee zimply can't show you heeere.

Now you can zee her almost at zee vater's edge. She vill swim lazily until she has regained her strength und zen take off for ozzer spawning arrreas vhere she vill continue her life und death strrruggle in search for more males vhile zheir females are off. Catalinas are right 'ores.

The male Catalina leaves a much deeper rut in the sand ...

they also tend to scream a lot.

Calm down, stand back all of you! Jeez, such an overwhelming demand! Move along, nothing to see here ... oh wait, yes there is.

Since this is such a popular ac, I'll add some more wear and do another in Irish/RAF colors later. I'll be quite busy though. I need to spend time with Helo and his Goatskies thing, so that means I need to learn how to make a web page or whatever you call it.

Dern, I hate when they make me use my bwain!


Fal ... erm ... oh, pretty flowers!
