Description
There I was...putting together a nifty dogfight with a cool color tone and all of a sudden the thought of all those "Enlist in the Air Corps" posters of WW 1 filled my brain (to say nothing of all those dime novel covers!). What's a guy gonna do? Ah, the drama, the patriotism...the desire to go try out this new toy for nearly free!!!!
Hanriot-Dupont HD1 of the "Arma Azzurra" by EOLE, free at sketchup warehouse.
Albatross: free at sharecg.com generously by Neiwil
Pilots: free Red Baron by Max Guenther at sketchup...tweaked and re-nationalized by me.
There's another plane there, but I'm afraid it got shot down before I could identify it...

Wonderful idea Bill and a fine recruiting call for "The 20 Minuters". I too love all those RFC and RAF posters of old with the over exaggerated out of scale aircraft, a bit like some of those great car ad's of the 50's. Hanriot-Dupont HD1 is another must have model too. Well done mate :)
