That looks great Rachael

I've seen some of your repaints you did on GA birds... C-hick and Campbell aviation! Quality work Rachael!

The weathering on the A-26 looks great!!!

I haven't tried that yet, except for the throttle console in the A-26.

Would like to see some tanker repaints, I know they will look fantastic!

Fantastic paint. I'm a fan of the Ragged Irregulars from Basingbourne, and it's cool to see their colors on the A-26.

Less than 'perhaps' totally realistic, (but who knows?) it was originally a testbed scheme for an a2a 17 job, but ended up loving where it was going and continuing...

91st Scheme is uploaded to the warbirds library

Including a layered fuselage texture psd with space for your own radio idents, name, and nose art

tufun,

The only thing I can say is ... that should keep several busy people for a very long time. :-)

With reference to the engines, it is great to see interest there, often overlooked. I would ask that you consider how deep in the cowlings the engines sit, and apply appropriate shading to the outer edges and allow them to become (gradiently) lighter toward the center. Most times, artists leave the engines much too bright given that they typically only receive indirect lighting. Look at pictures and in most you can barely make out the details of the engines.

I'm at it again... like a painting minigun...

Saw this...

Thought 'hmm'

Ended up with this...

Its in the download library if anyone's interested...

(PS: yes, I know the port cowl is reversed, I spotted this looking at the shot just as you did, and its fixed in the release)

Since you've done a few paints using artistic license, how about doing this one if/when you run out of ideas?

New York ANG. It's a blurry-some photo, but I was on a taxiway about 100 meters away.

***Firekitten*** · June 19th, 2012, 10:35

I'll put that one on the list... looks simple enough.

With these being HD repaints folks are going to run out of hard drive space pretty soon :P

Thanks Firekitten

Just been looking back through this thread and there are some textures there I don't have but it says they are in the library. I have looked in the normal downloads library but cannot find them. I did have a link but seems to have gone AWOL.

Any chance of someone posting a link for me please as there are a couple of fire bombers and a Canadian repaint I want to get but cannot find.

NY ANG? Looks like one of the A-26's operated by the Virginia ANG to me.

***Firekitten*** · June 20th, 2012, 04:27

Must admit it does look like a 'VA' before the roundel, rather than a NY... the part of the visible letter is more A than Y

***TuFun*** · June 20th, 2012, 10:06

Here's an example I found at... link: http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforum...o&FileID=11045

Flew it in FSX with no issues. No alpha, so it needs to be added.
