    Piglet T-28B refresh project

    Piglet's T-28B repaint and refresh project

    MDL reworked to add to shine and full retexturing.

    Starting with Armée de l'Air T-28S Fennec using T-28B model as a hack with minor differences (T-28S were not fitted with B model ventral airbrake and had french avionics)

    Planning a few Fennec users, as French sold them as surplus after Algeria events.





    More to come

    These are wonderful repaints, l'iguane. They certainly brighten up Tim's venerable T-28.

    Hi Horus,
    I was pretty sure you'd be enthusiastic about
    Well I managed to progress on the combat worn metal template, here it is :


    I also moved on a painted version, here as trial with an RD Congo/Zaïre T-28D's flown by CIA Cuban exilees


    All of this is WIP, I'll post more to update

    Cheers

    Hi Mav,

    On flightsim, try searching Tim conrad T-28, you should find both T-28 B&A models and some liveries. The A model didn't get much repainted though.
    As from now, all liveries above are still WIP and not available yet. I'm working on having it released by the end of the month, depending time I can spend on.

    Cheers

    Great work there!

    I've always liked the plane and the model, but the textures were always its weak point. You're skins remedy that in outstanding fashion!
