warthunder German tech tree

Tony May
Okay, I just happened to stumble over this while looking for this magnificent Airfix Do-217J build & I had to chuckle over the Warthunder German Tech Tree project. lol If it's any consolation my son wants to build all the vehicles from a Roblox game very similar to WoT, called Steel Titans, so I've seen this before. 😉 Do you plan to build them in the colors they wear in the game; Perhaps with event or premium skins?

unfortunately this project has been put on the backburner I am extremely busy with school and work at the moment but I hope to get back to this soon and thanks for your interest with this project it makes me feel more motivated to continue.

Yes, we often have to put our hobbyist pursuits on the back burner for our education, work, family & chores. However I think all the "real world" interruptions makes it all the more special when we do get the time to work on our modeling projects. Don't forget, if you start feeling overwhelmed with things that sometimes building something, anything, even if it's not your usual cup of tea can be very therapeutic in relieving stress. I wish you great luck when you are able to get back to it. You never did answer if you planned to paint these as they appear in War Thunder and/or perhaps with some of the custom skins?

if the skin is really eye catching maybe

update on this project I have bought the first three kits and I have figured out how I am going to do things if there is a folder vehicle I am going to choose the more special aircraft and I am starting with the latter four ranks and the I am going to do the former half.

Starting with the latter ranks? As in jets first? Also I noticed that you don't have the big six engine flying boat I've seen featured on videos with war thunder players goofing off, the Bv-222, listed. Are you planning to add that? It was fun watching people trying to land on that beast in midair. lol

A folder vehicle? As in an aircraft where there are several versions of the same plane, for example the Bf 109 or Bf 110?

It's been so long since I've tried to play War Thunder. I barely have the minimum capabilities to play on this PC so I don't bother. Earlier this month though I tried a trial VR flight sim on my brother-in-law's computer. Both he & my sister complained that it made them nauseous; It made me excited! Does War Thunder have options to play it on VR? My son will be buying a new PC next month with better than necessary capabilities to play it. I wanna know if I need to start saving to get MY controls for when he's not on his PC & is off goofing around with something else? 😄 lol

for the first question in Australia, it is really difficult to find a Bv-238 kit for a reasonable price and I am about to finish high school so I'm not going to stress about it. For the second question I will go for the most available variant or one that is more visually different for example the trop version of the Bf 109f-4 but the BF 109G is my favourite prop fighter, so I'll probably do all of the G variants. for the final question it does have a VR option, but I don't have access to a VR headset to play the game in VR.
