    All that scalloping must have driven you nuts! It would me. But...the finished product was worth it.. for us anyway!

    Another one in the pipeline! I have doubts about the red-orange colour!

    Think I found the right colour: FS 12197, international orange.

    My VMT-1 paint looks good with pbr. Good Job. When I do a skin, as much as possible I use the appropriate colors for the era. The US Navy had a few different orange colors in use. The red orange didn't last long as it faded rather quickly. I use the Official Monogram US Navy and Marine Corps Official Color Guides by Maj Elliot as a reference. And a ton of supporting documents I've acquired over the years.

    Cees, I looked at a few TF-9J color shots and I think you were OK with your original "Insignia Red" paint as in your screenshots in post #179. The red in post #180 is closer to DayGlo color.

    I uploaded the last version with the international orange. According to my sources this is the most accurate representation. I don't know when it will be up.

    It;s up now! Downloading as I type.

    Looks great Cees. I have seen the Navy orange on different aircraft. It usually starts out more reddish, but after a few months in the sun, it fades to the DayGlo shade you have here. I like it.

    The orange up to mid-late 60's was a poor quality compared to later paint. The early kind did fade, got a rough texture. Later on the better quality always seemed to stay fresh. Look at TA-4s, etc, they did not really fade out, stayed glossy.

    Either way it looks good,

    This will be the next one. After that I'll turn to the single seat variants. Mind you: still a work in progress!

    Just don't keep them to yourself. They look great. Still waiting to download and fly while housebound.

    I hope you'll like it.

    Clever use of the refueling probe as a a coloured "instrumentation" probe

    I like it - will also use it on the Rob's AI model for my upcoming retro USN/USMC traffic project.

    New Va 113 texture

    Wow Cees,

    The Va-113 texture looks nice.

    What were the improvements over your older paint of this one?

    Very nice paint Cees!
    Striker, listen, and you listen close: flying a plane is no different than riding a bicycle, just a lot harder to put baseball cards in the spokes.
