New Ar-234 Skins (Pics)

[n523dg]

Hey guys

Hope there's still some people flying the Ar-234 on here

Here's 1 of the skins I'm working on for it.  F1+ER of 7./KG76 with moderate weathering and dirt


I plan to make a few more (F1+AA, F1+AD, F1+AS) in varying conditions from clean to severely worn
Here's w.i.p of a severely worn out F1+AA


It's an ancient model so no goodies like alpha channel or bump maps but this old bird just got a new lease on life 

any feedback and ar234 thoughts/info/history highly appreciated

Looks good for what you have to work with on that old model.

I will recommend one thing. remove the crosses from the tail. By simply leaving the area clear, it does not call attention to the area and appears more correct. Whereas, substituting them for swastikas, it only calls attention to the markings being incorrect.

Hey Devil, Thanks

I had never thought of just removing the cross but you make a good point!  I'm gonna pull it off

I'm going back in now for another round of changes after finding dozens of great pics
