namely :

Junkers JU-88
Dornier Do-17
Heinkel He 111

fighters I have... (Spitfire and Me-109) but none of the Bombers of the time... poser is preferable, but OBJ is ok.. and good models are a must..

Khai are you interested in purchasing them or looking for freebies?
If you are looking to buy them you might try here:

not bad but none of the Warbirds I need...

(just fighters and allied bombers....)

You'll find everything you want in the De Espona collection:

Do17, He 111, Ju 188, Ju 88, it's all there and lots more.

no good at this time...

Despona sell through Vanishing Point.... and they only have a couple of planes I need... but in Max format only... no good to me at all... (I've already timed out the max demo)

hopefully they'll convert the 111 soon....

(looking for planes that were used in the Battle of Britain so it's pretty exact on the needs)

VanishingPoint have the Heinkel and the Dornier, but as VP have the DeEspona collection they are for 3D Studio Max only. Might be worth sending them a note asking about a conversion though.

OK, you beat me by a couple of minutes :)

One important airplane is missing from your list : the Ju-87 "Stuka". Which is found right here in the Marketplace as a Poser model :

As for the He-111 there is one available in the 3D Warehouse for Google Sketchup. You need the free version of Sketchup 6 to convert it to 3ds format, which can be imported into Poser.

I did'nt count the Ju-87 since I was aiming for the last major battle of the Battle of Britain - September 15th 1940 - by that time the '87 had been withdrawn from the battle due to heavy losses (it was withdrawn around the 18th of august after many had been shotdown in the 'hardest day')

Not German, & not a fighter, but If you need something for them to use for target practice, check out BeyondVR's excellent B-25 freebie:

thanks... I'll nab that... but I can't use it for this pic ;)

-the B-25 wasn't in the BoB you see ;)

Still drifting off your target, but for a Brit bomber, the Poser-Ready Lancaster B1 by Baze at 3DCommune Store or Vanishing Point is really well done also.
