PBR makeover for Cees's superb repaint
Thanks for the compliment Rob! It's such a nice looking aircraft!
Cees
Another one in the pipeline! I have doubts about the red-orange colour!
Cees
Is this better?
Cees
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.
Cees
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,

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

Sorry, I can't help myself!
Cees
Just don't keep them to yourself. They look great. Still waiting to download and fly while housebound.

If at first you don't succeed, try, try,try again. ... or go read the manual.
I uploaded these two. For all you people that are confined to stay indoors. Have fun!
Cees
I uploaded the VX-5 repaint. Should be up soon.
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.

And this is the next one....It's uploaded.
Cees
Wow Cees,
The Va-113 texture looks nice.
What were the improvements over your older paint of this one?
Just compare these nose arts. And Lots of other details.
Cees
Very nice paint Cees!
Well I've been to one World Fair a picnic and a rodeo and that's the stupidest thing I've ever heard come over a set of earphones.
Thank you!
Cees
Congrats Cees, you are among the masters!
