WHen you zoom with the skinviewer it distorts things with the wide-angle lens effect, so this may not actually be an issue , but the access panel on the starboard side looks too high to me.

lmao sorry, i got into another part of the project, and didn't want to send out a 1/2 ased job.

i will email tonight what i have, but mind you i am still working on some basic stuff.


right now i am making an outline of the actual surfaces, so you basically "color inside the lines" i have the whole fuselage done, and it works perfect. everything outside the lines is pard of the background with the wheels and stuff.

it took some serious work to egt where i am. the template i started with had each surface on it's own layer, and not a full 1024x1024 image. i took all those and put them on 1 layer, so all of the panel lines are on the same now. in the pick i posted here before they were not on 1 layer.

i also have a dummy layer mimmicing the panel lines, but softened / blurred to a pixel each side. this is per kweassa's suggestion, right now i keep it invisible, but i plan on playing with that once the paint is started

i am going to tackle the wings tonight, and as i go i am tweaking the edges of the panel lines. rigt now there are 3 or 4 that are just off a pixel or 2. maybe 2-3 more nights of edge work, and im ready to start all the little warning signs and stuff, and the squadron markings.

then all that's left is actual "paint" ! ; )

you still want what i have?

yea, the viewer really needs a view angle silder so it doesn't distort the model.  

Looking good!

Ugh sorry JB. Didn't mean to bug you for it then not check my mail. Been busy 4 days in a row (and today's hectic as hell). Might be able to check it out tonight.
