Milviz F-100D is out

[jim]

Remember them well (I spent 22 yrs. in Army Guard) (HOORAAH 26ID) Also had a nephew-in-law that flew RC-121's out of Otis for 20 years.

Skyblazers WIP. Needs major alignment...but much easier than anticipated! Hopefully by next week. Not much time this week...

Gulp!! Another masterpiece Rick. Can't wait.

[Duckie]

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!

Awesome! The 1961 scheme of the Skyblazers! Great work. This image shows what is probably too much wear. Those birds were CLEAN like the Thunderbirds! Great texture mapping on the scheme though.

Thanks! Do you mean the engine area? i have not done the wings yet. However the Fuselage, and V-stab have 0% dirt or weathering applied. Nothing. So those are as clean as you can make them, without having to repaint the entire base texture from scratch. Also keep in mind this is not a C model. So the engine area may have different panel lines etc. I can create custom engine effects easily now, since creating a template within my PSD files. However I've seen varying engine heat scorching in photos.

Rick, for the record, there's no difference concerning the engine section between the C and D versions....same panel lines...

Cheers

Hi, no I mean the painted area on the front. One of those pics shows what looks like wear on the front end. The rest looks great. (the whole thing looks great. it may just be a weird angle in the screen shot.) One observation are you using AmarilloUSAF font on the numbers? Those look like Navy numbers...?

Goood eye! I had used Amarillo for the numbers but it was clearly not the same as the photos. However its all just a placehildet anyway Ill switch it back and see what you guys think of it. Yeah i did put the wear on the intake lip.

[findus]

Thx again, she's a real beauty!

[JensOle]

Looking good!

But check the font, I don't think it was either Amarillo or the long beach navy font. You probably need to hand make the numbers. Specially check the "2"

thanks. yes, exactly. I was feeling the same thing. I have looked it over numerous times and thought it didn't resemble Either Amarillo or Navy. I'll get it right prior to release!

There is a new Danish repaint by Jakob Arnholtz on Avsim and flightsim that is amazing.

[Duckie]

I think GEORGIA ANG is finally done. Basically tired of fooling with! I got as close as I could get it.

Still have to do the paper work but it will be up by the weekend.

Just uploaded....

Very Nice Duckie... Wonderful attention to detail!!

MY MAN!!! Awesome. How bout a right side pic? Im out of town for a wedding this weekend otherwise would be DLing asap!! Same bird I did for myself but now will overwrite with this. Did you notice that in the real bird, the camo scheme on the right side tail is different than the SEA Paint kit scheme? Hoping you caught that so I can replace my personal hack with your work here.

Once again I wish Milviz would give us a version with the F-102 afterburner.

That numbers font is something not ordinary. Dont know what it is. but this decal sheet might make a good template to either match or create by hand in Photoshop?

Yeah, I sent him a PM about it a couple days ago. "US AIR FORCE" is different also.

[Mach3DS]

Now for the hardest part (for me)....the slats....ugh.....I hated painting these for the Tbird Six....LOL....getting much closer to being done now...only a few other minor alignment issues...fix the fonts...and we're good to go! Oh-- and custom helmet....that's a surprise.

Would be nice to have the 335-gallon version of the wing tanks as well. They had a 60-gallon plug in front of the
pylon that put the tank tip out ahead of the wing root leading edge. Very common in Vietnam.

Yes got your message! Will do my best to get it right
