:rolleyes: No that's not what I'm doing waffle. I do have a bit of skinning skill about 5 years to date.
Ill leave moves like that to the noobs.
That skin has 62 layers and represents 4 days work.
 I take pride in my work.
what your implying is the same as someone who buys a premade model, and instead of building there own,They take the credit for doing it themselves. That's not my style  sir.


skinner team or not that comment is way out line.
If you cant say something constructive  please keep it to yourself.

Take a closer look

Raven - I didn't mean it as a jab, I was just curious, that's all. Sorry if you took offense.

raven, the plane looks very grainy, but on closer inspection, its not the plane its the image. you reckon you could turn it into a better quality jpeg, 100% conversion from bitmap? would really help

another thing you might want to do is turn on antialiasing in your display preferences in windows, just to get rid of the pixel effect on the wing tips. otherwise, it looks great!

This probably goes without saying, but I'll say it... You will correct the camo alignment on the "upper nose" portion before you submit it, yes? :P

I can't use picture hangar right now... Sent them an e-mail but I can't log in!

Anyways, in image "j8.jpg" you see the sides don't match up with the upper nose portion, just adjust the upper nose portion (it wraps around the top of the nose) so that the brown camo demarcation line matches on each side (port/starboard), see what I mean?

EDIT: I had picture hangar reset my password, damn thing got it messed up.



I mean make the camo line up in these areas, so that you have a more-or-less steady pattern. There's a minor break by the wind screen, and a major break by the guns.

EDIT2:



Note that this is the default skin piece. However, also note that not all of this is used when it's mapped onto the plane. I found that out when working on the Emils. You have to tweak, check, re-tweak, repeat, to get them to line up properly.

more like this:



The yellow line is where it is now, the green line is where it ought to be.

EDIT:


If you have the dark color on its own layer, simply shift part of that layer over, and then adjust the angle of the line so that it matches both port and starboard sides of the nose
