Spent a few hours working on this tonight, I have not started any weathering/oil/dirt. I just finished the paint job and wanted to see what ya'll thought. I just noticed I forgot to do the red, white and blue on the rudder.

Bah i work to fast:confused:

hater thats all

I hope you made your own template.

Nose panel lines look to dark. Shouldn't the red and white stripes go down all the way and loop?

no, they are only on the cowl flaps.

And I'm only working on 1 skin right now, you claim 6 at a time.

It's 1024x1024, the panel lines are only 1 pixel, maybe the rivets aren't aparent enough and make the panel lines look blurry.

What program do you use to make skins?

Do you use layers?

Raptor · « **Reply #12 on:** July 21, 2005, 03:52:31 PM »

Yes:p

Here's an update on it
I fixed the paint scheme
Added chipped paint (It was used in the last months of the war in Europe so for the most part it looks fairly clean)
Dirtied it up behind the cowl flaps
Made rivets more visible, but it does not seem very visible, will go back and fix it.

Still not finished.

I cant see the panel through the blue/purple or was it heavily painted? Can you please post a very close up shot? so I can see detail?
