Finally broke some head way with blending the air duct and wing to fuselage.

Any tips on blending the main wing to fuselage? That is giving me most trouble right now.

Update: Changed the method of constructing main cylindrical fuselage. Working on fusing the intake to the fuselage now. Rudder, horizontal stabilizer, elevator and trim tab are created. Since I cant find anyone else to help, the first objective is to finish 3d model, and then go for AI plane.

Here are the humble beginnings...

Hi all, Posting a thread titled such in order to gauge interest. I gained an interest in this aircraft after learning about my grand uncle 1st Lt Ed Fleming flying tail 49-703, who was shot down in korea after pulling up from a rocket attack on a train. Seeing as there is an ME 262 being speculated for future release in the next years, I figure this would be the perfect match for it. While that would technically be the P-80A model, there were minor configuration changes and no major hardware changes to my knowledge. So, constructing the C variant would still be relevant and also allow for a mission to shoot down the first even jet to jet kill by opposing nations. The only other modern games to have the f80 are Warthunder and FSX. Nothing to the caliber of DCS. I have started on the basic modeling of the aircraft. Are there any texture artists or programmers that have interest in this project?
