Title: P38's anyone had any luck?
Post by: Kev367th on February 06, 2005, 09:16:18 PM

1) Producing a Japanese kill symbol that doesn't look a real mess once reduced.
2) Putting a color surround around the cannon aperatures?

i like your skin! ummm the spinners look too dark of a red, for the kill symbols i wouldnt copy and paste them, id either make them big then resize them or just spend the time and amke them by hand with the 1-2 pixel size pencil.

Very nice Kev. The US insignia on the tail boom looks a bit small though. I've noticed this on several of the P38s skins I've seen in here.

Resized the fuselage roudels ^^^^^^^^.
Still looks small but I think it's a perspective thing, checking the sizes against decal sheets they are just about dead on in ratio.
Fuselage star is approx 66% of the wing ones.
