Rudel Posted November 6, 2002 Posted November 6, 2002 I know there are templates out there already, but IMHO I think they stink :( So I am creating new ones that have black panel lines and rivets so you can adjsut the opacity better. They will be in both Photoshop 6 and Paint Shop Pro 7 format. I don't have this simulation yet, but I do have a F-4E skin that a frend sent me that I am currently working with. Give me a few days to get the templates done. Cheers S! Quote

Vex Posted November 6, 2002 Posted November 6, 2002 Hey guys, any chance for a A4 template like that? :) Vex Quote
Rudel Posted November 7, 2002 Author Posted November 7, 2002 You bet. Well..lol..I still dont have the Actual simulation. I haven't seen it anywhere in stores here. So the only way for me to get the A4 Template done is if someone sends me an orginal textures from the simulation to me :) fa18resource@yahoo.com Cheers S! Quote

Rudel Posted November 8, 2002 Author Posted November 8, 2002 Well, no s**t huh....LOL I need to start lookin around this new place Cheers S! Quote
Rudel Posted November 18, 2002 Author Posted November 18, 2002 Concidering I made it before I had the game :D Thanks again ;) Quote
Qfly Posted November 18, 2002 Posted November 18, 2002 Glad to hear someone is working on more templates! Thank you sir.. :D The problem I have been facing is not enough of the fine detail can be removed from the template while laying the cammo down.. If you could simply get down to the bare colors and slap anotrher color on, it would make things much easier.. Cheers, Qfly Quote
Rudel Posted November 19, 2002 Author Posted November 19, 2002 Mt blank templates usually include the following layers: Panel Lines Rivets (Top Wing, Bottom Wing, Fuselage separated) "Machinery Parts" (Wheels, Cockpits, Lights, etc etc) Transparent Layer (Camoflage Color) Background (Use made for the bottom color of the aircraft) Shadows That's about it. Usually I leave the weathering up to the individual. I mean..who wants a plane that looks like the one I made according to weathering :) Cheers S! Quote
Dark_Knight_667th Posted November 29, 2002 Posted November 29, 2002 Methinks I created a monstor when I sent him that skin..I just asked him to do his famous touch for the 667th...LOLOL OK..in all honesty..Rudel was and is one of the best skinners there ever was in Janes FA18..take a look at the FA18 resource link in his sig..alot of that is his work. He's even taught me a trick or two in Photoshop..though I'm nowhere near as good as he is..I can generally cause enough damage to it now to give up in disgust..LOL DK Quote
