Just finished a new 2D panel for the Storch..

Sometimes the best plans of mice and men often go awry....
A big OOPs... I got so intense on doing it, I thought I was through before I was...
forgot the yellow stripes, red elevators and wing tips.. plus misplaced manufacturer logo and no kill marks...
Now I got it finished... until I or another rivet counters find fault with it.... :isadizzy::isadizzy:

Fortunately for me, Keltie pointed out some mistakes...
Zoot suiter only on one side... elevator trim tabs in yellow... and I noticed a few more glaring errors... like the manufacturer logo
and kills...
I think it is done now...
This is why I never post stuff for general consumption and prefer requests... because I'd hate to have to go back and issue corrections
on repaints I put out online... one always makes mistakes and/or omissions...

Hey Shessi... what do you think of this latest addition.... (I still like better the other one)...

Hey Shessi... what do you think of this latest addition.... (I still like better the other one)...

Not bad at all if I may say so...
Comments welcome... and as usual... available for the asking

[Shessi]

Ha ha! G,
Superb, I really can't say how much better I think this one is from the first one, each to their own I suppose.

I'm liking that a lot. I've just about finished the cockpit and am doing the VC panel etc...so....

With that in mind could you send me the list/pictures of the dials you used so I can best match with the VC panel, thanks.

Cheers

I just finished another old project... a "phorealistic" panel for the Wildcat...

[Shessi]

Clever! and looks very good

Be good if someone used these photo real images and panel for a good 2D panel.

Keltie pointed out to a glaring error I missed... I think I got confused with
the windshield truss work and added an upright too many... hahaha
Easy enough to rectify...

Is this something like what you wanted me to send you?... If so, I will send you the original bmp.. which is over 2,000 pixel wide and 1200 high...
If not... tell me exactly what you need...

Found this panel for the Grumman Greyhound in need of some TLC... Its textures also need some redoing...

Did some major plastic surgery on the one posted thereof...

I am learning a new way be able to post larger and more detailed textures... and I see that it works... my much earlier post on my
representation of the Bismark... really did not do justice to the level of detail it has on the original file...
as one can see.. it now does... (and the original is twice as large so one can get an idea... I can make it available gratis... and it
really looks nice in print... suitable for framing, I think...)

I think it works fine... I will use this method from now on....

Very kind words Matt...
I know your profile is going to look like a photo when you get through with it! My son Alessandro is visiting from the "the Big Apple"...
He's a graphics artist in NY... and also puts together computers... so he said... Dad you need a state of the art machine.... He figured he could build me a real monster... so I took him on... and off we went....just came from City of Industry (near Pomona) with it...
He ordered this morning and was ready by 5 pm... and we went and got it... dog and all...
16 gb, 1 TB hdd and a 256 gig SSD..... 27 in flat screen 1440 resolution... Intel Core i7 overclock at 3.9 ghz with a video card GTX 760 with 2 gb of VRAM...
I finally got something decent... he says he can get it together by tomorrow...
and all for less than 2 grand...! Nice to have a geek son... hahaha (no labor charges...)
Let's see that new profile as soon as you get it done...

I'm going to be doing some action scenes like this... working already on one with P-40s bombing a German AK formation...

[gaucho_59]

I had posted earlier this work but it really looked washed out in the smaller jpg...
I think it now shows much better... (remember your comment at the time Matt?)

[gaucho_59]

Got some more profiles to post...
I like my thread to be eclectic... nothing is out of line here... sort of like Burger King...we do it YOUR way...
anyone can post whatever they have to show and share...

[Shessi]

Fantastic work there G!

All excellent, clever so and so...ha ha.

Cheers

Shessi


ps A gentle reminder about the 410 panel?

As you can see... all of this is old stuff... just uploaded it with this new flicker toy... did not involve any real work...
and didn't interfere with my "real life" vicissitudes...
It is my son's last day in the desert... he is going back to NY and
real life work tomorrow... and still has not finished installing my "monster" new computer... got to benefit from his nerdy
presence to the max... he cannot leave "half-done"... I wouldn't know how to finish it...

[gaucho_59]

Here are a couple I did a while ago

[gaucho_59]

Here is a new panel I just worked out for the old Vatour... in Israeli service

[gaucho_59]

Just finished redoing this one...

[gaucho_59]

I extended the field of view and made the panel a little larger too...
