Made the stripes thicker on the rear fuselage like they are on the new style paint design for Cal Fire. (map issue with the left wing hinges and spoilers)

Map issue? Will check it out; thanks

EDIT: Model corrected to add the mapped spoilers to the tail bmp. Hinges mapped. Let me know if you have any issues. New model and tail template emailed to you.

Thanks Milton! New Green Machine done. Tanker 72 in 1974. This is my favorite green tanker because of the kill markings on the nose.

While the color may take a bit getting used to, the detail overall and especially on the cowls is superb.

Cheers

This Grumman project is making good headway. Nice work everyone!

Excellent job there TG; really like the details.

Where I can find a good reference or a guide for panel lines for this plane? If I can find a good detail reference, I will be glad to help with making a PK for the S2-T and also if needed the S2F-3.

I will upload the texture templates for both and send you a link.

I will also load what I have for panel line references.

Thank you

EDIT: Everything is uploaded; links send by PM.

Looking forward to some beautiful Japanese and Taiwan paints for this superb ship

LOL Steve. I hope when the time is right, you will splash a little drool-tainted paint on these babys.

Yep, Milton's right.

If they're anything like those awesome F-4's, we'll need the bibs when picking a bunch!

Absolutely! Recently been spending a little time with 2 of my favorite colors, GRAY and WHITE, so, patiently waiting, sprayer in hand, to give it a go.
