@Nacho...

Glad you like the HD

To answer your question about the the paint-job on Olieslagers Sopwith Camel:
The Aviation militaire Belge received their aircraft from the French and the British and those aircraft came in the paintschemes of their producing country.
The Belgians took over those schemes but added some personal touches to it.
The Sopwith that is depicted here is an aircraft from "Green" flight lead by Olieslagers. There was also a Yellow and a blue flight .
Most aircraft looked the same so it may look as if the sopwith from Olieslagers was a copy from Coppens" Hd1 when in fact most aircraft looked like this with here and there some added colours for recognition.
Coppens flies a HD1 which looked similar but had a blue fan on its "stabilo"

Series 3: here you have some more previews of the final product:
Gioconomicon :: il Portale dei Giochi

It should be available in one month or so.

SO is that available in the U.S. in a month? or in EU? Looking forward to the Nieuports!!

They look great! Especially the UFAG's, I think I have to buy them all. :>

Damn, one more month to wait.

I know it's early to ask, but when do you think can we see some of the bombers or the balloon? Will it be in a few months or will it be a longer time to wait?

Seriers 3: two containers should be now be sailing, one toward USA and one toward Europe - so one month everywhere.

Ballooon model: in a few months.

Multi-engine bombers: in a little more time as cardboard, in some more time as models.

All the best!

Great!

I see you've put a couple with my favourite cockades in it.

Looks like we have some nice things to look forward to ib the near future

By the way : is there a date set for that playing mat you were talking about earlier ?

Angiolillo · 30 September 2008, 01:44 PM

Actually one Re8... even if it's in three pictures. But the Belgian air force needed a two-seater! The paint scheme comes from a museum (Bruxelles maybe?) - all green with a wasp at the half of the fuselage.

The mat is under study, no date set yet.

All the best,

Andrea

you mean this one ?

The picture doesn't do the color of the fuselage justice...It is a pre-digital pic...

Angiolillo · 30 September 2008, 02:15 PM

Well the bird is exactly him. The color can be jusged by the miniature pictures at the link I gave you...

Blimey, you boys have been busy again! I've been off-board for a few months and what happens? Well, looks like the credit crunch is about to get crunchier... the wife will be happy

Like the look of the Albatross D.III and excited about the Nieuports.

Now for the wants - the miniatures appear to be following the sets in the actual boxed games. I'd love to see some miniatures for the booster packs - I realise there is a bit of a conflict there as the cards with the minitaure make the booster pack redundant - however some mini Eindeckers and D.H.2's would be very interesting

And how about a limited edition just for me??? One of my favourite planes of the whole war - Ruston and Proctor's 1000th Sopwith Camel (B7380). OK, I realise I'm asking too much... Or am I?

Keep up the great work Angiolillo!
