Virtavia B-29 "It's Hawg Wild"

Post by DaveG »

Here's my repaint of the B-29 "It's Hawg Wild" for the Virtavia model.
Paint is based on how she appears now, at the IWM Duxford.

To celebrate my new video card installation, I did a test flight to see how far I could push the settings ;)

Cheers Dave. :)

Something that I've noticed with the B-29 today, and which is evident on that picture - just behind the de-icing boot on the leading edge of the wing, is a very shiny strip running the length of the wing. You can see the same on the leading edge of the tail plane. You would think that its just light reflection on bare metal, but its always there, no matter which way you turn the aircraft in relation to the sun. It almost looks like a strip of white paint, and is common to all the B-29 repaints, not just Hawg Wild. Very odd. *-) I wonder if it's my settings, or the new card and driver or something. Can you have a look next time you have the Superfort up and running, please ?

I'll do that for you mate. Just got in from work. Give me a mo to change my clobber and I'll take a looksee :thumbsup:

EDIT: I just looked at Enola Gay and see exactly the same mate so it's the model.. not your new card :thumbsup:
