I must admit I'm far more energetic when replacing the graphics in other people's scenarios than when making my own from scratch. My current fad is modern scenarios - I've updated Nemo's Gulf war and APL's Crisis. BTW you should also check out the Gulf scenario - I'd always overlooked it in favour of his later stuff, but it's actually pretty good.
so, what all are you planning on upgrading?

If you mean the Raging Dragon units, well, most of them really. The Russian and US planes were the main thing - as you can see I only did minor tweaks to your APCs. I've done some new infantry as well. I don't plan to touch the Chinese planes, and I've used some of Case's later ship graphics to replace the ones in the scenario file.

Yep, that's what I meant. I was a little curious about the Gulf War too though, but I think everything is out there already for it. Also, I was thinking of tweaking some of the Chinese planes. After looking around the other night, I see that the dimensions for both my J-8 and Case's Q-5 fantan are off. I think I may tweak them a bit.

P.S. What do you think of the Type-88 graphic. And here is a cool site if you haven't seen it! Oh and are there plans to upgrade my YW 531?

Yes, I've got that site (its what I used for the type 85 graphic) and it is very cool

Here's a couple for you:

http://www.ciar.org/~ttk/mbt/fofano...anov/index.html

http://www.ciar.org/~ttk/mbt/

and some good sites with isometric models to copy planes from:

http://www.aviation-central.com/1946-1970/af000.htm

http://www.deespona.com/3denciclope...a_aircraft.html

http://www.turbosquid.com/HTMLClien...stSearchKey/jet

BTW I don't see your pic of the Type 88 - did you post it?
How about we do a joint Dragon upgrade - Case seems to be cool with a new version being posted.

That is definitely an intrigueing offer. The only problem is that I might not be able to live up to my half of the bargain. I may be changing jobs in a couple of weeks and I might be away for weeks at a time. I hate to leave but this other job pays twice what I am making now.

P.S. Tecumseh's Congo would be a good one to upgrade too.

Here are some of the tweaks I have done for Raging Dragon. I have only done a couple of units so far. The F/A 18 is only in there because I thought the wing looked funny. I think it is an improvement. You guys tell me if it looks better.

P.S. I would like to add that the H-6 is a modified version of Curt Sibling's M-4 which is a modified version of my own M-4. Tha Arjun was based on one of Scott Fluhr's Leopards. I only did minor modifications to the other two jets.

Take it easy, I'm not offended Yes, I am a 'member' of the ANGA, but that was only for fun

To be hones I find many of Nemo's original units a bit boring, but still revolutionizing. I love the remakes of his units here at SL. Simply brilliant. I have enormous respect for all you guys!

Just to go even further into the lions cave I'll post my units from the soon-to-be-released 'Blitzkrieg - Awakening the Giant'

I think that some of them are a fair compromise between isometric and high res

Keep up the good work, guys!

Have you seen Bebro's it is posted quite a bit earlier in the thread. Or do you want an original one?

P.S. I am not sure why you are asking, I thought you had one. If you are being subtle, I guess I am too dense to get it.

I was hoping that fairline might give the mig21 a try, but I know he is very busy right now.

Perhaps some one could do an upgrade of the Soviet Steel infantry chaps to make them look more contemporary? (eg Camo uniforms, Kevlar helmets, automatic rifles?)

@ typhoon: if you wait about a month or so, all your prayers will be answered. Trust me on this, I have been privy to some work on some upgrades that are in process and if you wait patiently (i.e. no whining, begging, or threatening ) you will have you socks blown off.
