Right lads, so this is now a standard template for FD scale ?

yes... We could have one bigger (longer) sheet that would fill the normal screen length, but basicly everything that needs horizontal scrolling is too big for the scale.

A question about the templates: I have a drawing (below) that will not fit on the template. Do I break it up into eight different drawings?

Here are my FD-scale drawings. I have never used a standard FD template in the past, so I have taken the time to get these all on the template posted in this thread, and correct file names used.

I think break it into 2.
4 planes in each template.

I don't know. I don't have any authority to decide things. Neither does WhyMe. It depends on what Gollevainen says.

However, I can tell you what I ended up doing:


Because I was sick and tired of having to hunt through all of the FD-scale database looking for a vehicle and trying to figure out if the Royal Netherlands Air Force F-16 is in the United States database (which, BTW, it is for some reason) or some other nonsense like that, I broke it down, created a new sheet, and put each individual aircraft on its own sheet which I then put into the folder of its proper nation. At the same time I preserved the larger sheet and put that in the folder of the primary serving nation/nation of manufacture so all the variants can be viewed at once. Still, I do like the idea of breaking it up, but I also prefer for various variants and color schemes of the same nation to be consolidated, at least (like what Radome has done with his Harrier)


Regarding canvas size limits, I for one wouldn't be so hard and fast on the (in)flexibility of the canvas size (I for one would really like to see Concorde or a B-1B in FD-scale, and maybe I'll do one of each myself) but two things to consider:

1.) Gollevainen makes all final policy decisions

2.) Regarding FD-scale ships specifically, this is still Shipbucket, so FD-scale ships will, at best, remain a novelty.

Dude, what ever you do, get rid of my old Eurofighters, they are incorrectly painted and drawn, working on the correct versions since last night.

You mean me, right? ;)

Okay, I think I'll sort it out for myself then, and post the end result :D

I'll be waiting until the weekend after New Year's to send the .zip file to Gollevainen since he pretty much told me I have that long to organize them. You've got until then to submit any new drawings you'd like to see uploaded to the database.
