WINNER OF SKINNING CONTEST ANNOUNCEMENT!

[+MK2]

All right everyone please join me in congratulating the winner of the very first Combatace OFF skinning contest:

 

Fubar45

 

 

His amazing Se5a of Lt A P F Rhys Davids of 56 Sqn was the winner.

 

This skin was totally redone including all the details, wing ribbing stitching etc. He

even redid some cockpit textures!

 

It was a very close contest between several forum members and the voting was very close. There was even some thought in having several winners (that is how close it was).

 

Fubar45 enjoy your new monitor!

 

Please PM me your address and shipping details and we will have your prize on its way.

 

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the members that submitted incredible skins. The OFF community is the real winner in this contest as we have so many new skins to play with.

 

If you have not seen the new skins please proceed to the OFF download section and start enjoying them! http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?autoc...amp;showcat=350

Well gentlemen .... did you REALLY think it would be anything BUT the glorious and magnificent Se5a. The best kite ever designed in the whole wide world .... ever. Well perhaps I exaggerate. But she is a little beauty.

 

Rhys Davids ! Stout fellow. Shot down Voss. Another one of my hero's !

 

And of course congrats Fubar45 ! With all your intricate detail you have brought Arthur's kite to life

[Herr Prop-Wasche]

That kite is definitely not F.U.B.A.R. Good job!

[Jammer28]

I just looked through all the skins. Wow, I can see why the judges had a tough time deciding on one winner. Absolutely fantastic work by all the skinners.

Congratulations Fubar

[Gous]

Congratulations Fubar! An amazing skin indeed.

[Creaghorn]

congrats fubar!

 

i don't have some tools to tweak skins. but if i would have, they would look like some drawings from a 3 year old child. i am amazed about everyone who has any kind of talent for drawings and paintings and stuff like this. especially such beautiful and detailed skins you all made. how you do it and how you make it look so great will always remain a mistery for me. i can understand why it was a hard desicion.

 

enjoy your new monitor.

[Beanie]

Congratulations Furbar. It is indeed a great skin.

 

More please!

[UK_Widowmaker]

Stunning Skin (and was the skin I was 'most' worried about as a competitor!)

 

My sincere congratulations Fubar...... I am sure that we all look forward to more of your creative talent being shared with us.

 

And thanks to the guys at Combatace...the contest was very enjoyable, and really helped me to push forwards with skinning

Interesting observation, Siggi!

 

Otherwise an awesome skin, must roll up another SE pilot... there must be some more of the Rhys family who have yet to serve.

 

Congrats to Fubar and here's to the next compo.

[Peeppu]

Congrats Fuber, really great skin for my lovely SE5a!

[RAF_Louvert]

Morning Everyone,

 

I just returned from a business trip to St. Louis and read the news...well done fubar! Your winning skin is outstanding Sir, and now we each get to share not only your efforts but the efforts of all who entered designs for this competition. A great idea and my hats off to the OFF team...again!

 

Now then, that comic strip post of Red-Dog's looks like it could be the next contest. Might generate some excellent OFF advertising material.

 

Cheers!

 

Lou

Congrats Fubar! I don't think I've tried out the SE5a yet, but gonna go DL your skin and give it a try. Congrats to you and all the skinners.

Hi all

 

Thank you all very much for the kind words, and a big thank you to the combatace guys and of course all the guys of the OFF team (WHAT A GREAT SIM THIS IS).

I have enjoyed making these skins and the standard from everyone was very high,

its been a great contest of which I happen to be the very lucky winner.

 

I must say what a great forum this is there's a real good vibe about the place

With helpful and friendly people.

 

One last word about why theres no elavator marking on the upper side surface,

 

there was a small texture repeat problem on the elavator so I desided to leave it out.

 

thanks again guys for all the nice words now I must go and get myself shot down .
