Oh well, good job I have some updated screenies :d
Still WIP, I am still working on the details, fuselage pretty much done, wings 50% done and other bits about 33% done. They should be ready for upload next weekend all being well.

Really looking forward to these Steve . Taking the 123 through the hills and valleys brings back alot of memories . It has needed some new paint for along time .

Beautiful work, Steve.

The -123 has long been a favorite of mine, but sadly relegated to the rear of the hangar for the lack of repaints.

Now, thanks to you................

As you can see it does have a VC , obviously not quite up todays standard but overall an excellent job by Vladimir Zhyhulskiy .

Well worth the download at flightsim.com and fun to fly .

Here's an update on the USAF scheme.

**SteveB** · September 30th, 2008, 15:51

And I have been playing with a Cambodian Airforce scheme as well.

**SteveB** · October 3rd, 2008, 08:19

I have finnished up on the masters or so I thought, I was just working on the readmes when I realised that because the model I have been working on, the B model, I had completely forgotten about the jato engines on the K models

. I will rectify this tonight and upload the first few paints tommorow.

**SteveB** · October 3rd, 2008, 10:32

Seeing how the USCG only used B models I have just uploaded the paint, It should show up a little later.

Steve

**SteveB** · October 3rd, 2008, 14:07

This one will be uploaded next, just got a couple of minor edges to sort.

**Flyboy208** · October 3rd, 2008, 14:25

Cracking repaints Steve, all it need now is a Banana Bob prop mod.

Cheers! Mike :ernae:

**Flyboy208** · October 3rd, 2008, 15:07

Yes, this US Coast Guard repaint is excellent Steve! I find that Banana Bob's prop for Vladimir's AN2 Colt works well, even if the C-123 has 3-bladed props, the 4-blade setip looks fine to me.

Cheers! Mike :ernae:

**SteveB** · October 3rd, 2008, 15:20

Nice piccies Mike, it is nice too see piccies from someone elses sim rather than just my own :d. It's a shame theres only one texture for both the wing bottoms, it makes it difficult to be accurate. But apart from that it's not too dificult too paint overall. Talking of which I have just uploaded the SEA cammo scheme paint.

Steve

**SteveB** · October 3rd, 2008, 16:18

This one will be up next, it just needs a couple of edges finnishing up, so I will be uploading it tommorow.

Thanks Flyboy

I tried a few of Banana Bobs props but had no joy and I was going to ask if anyone could recommend a good prop.

Steve, the new textures look great. Looking forward to trying them. :ernae:

Pete.

Steve,

Not only did the Cambodian AF and the VNAF fly the Provider, but the Royal Thai Air Force operated them for many years too.

As well as South Korea, Saudi Arabia, Laos and the phillipines not to mention a couple of private firms like Butler Air Services and Air America. There are plenty of schemes available to do, thats why i'll be uploading the layered paintkit incase anyone wants to do any of them :d.
