About to start work on a batch of skins. Will try to get as many of these done as I can before the next default skin project. In no particular order these will be:

Ki-43:
Manchuko - bare metal with Japanese characters on fuselage


Grebo, the current P-51, P-38, P-47, that are polished aluminum are shown with gay paint and aren;t very shiny. Does the new reflecting surface effect add the ability to do those skins more realistically? And are there any plans to do some of them over?
Who is John Galt?

Most of the skins for those planes were done before the specular mapping feature was introduced. Before then the skinner could only determine how shiny the whole skin could be. Now he can create a specularity map which lets him choose how shiny each individual pixel will be. I've included spec maps on the last few P-47s I have done including all the default ones. However the older skins don't have this feature.

Currently the skins submission page does not allow a skinner to update a previously submitted skin, but this feature is coming. When it does I'll start updating some of my older skins. I will concentrate on bare metal ones at first as the effects work best on these.
