WIP Mega THREAD!

theres been a few missing details from the Bats skin, especially if you want it from the early 90s

 and yeah, they mostly all had nosearts, but i can only find about half of them

[+daddyairplanes 8,629]

itsa wrap for tonight

[+daddyairplanes 8,629]

minor PITA.... and ive discovered im late for the wing king on this one for the year.....

[+daddyairplanes 8,629]

less tweaks to the tail of this one. but more a little bit more detail than the original (names, AFOUA etc)

 

[+daddyairplanes 8,629]

so a little in depth update. i didnt plan to do this one originaly. "it was covered" i said to myself . then my little "do everything" OCD bug kicked in.....

001 in the serial line up original skin

001 serial new skin

this unit mark is tga

Aircraft s/n 86-0233 original

and new

this one is on skin. the  tga patch is a command bird one that covers.

even tidied up the tail a little, although it needed the least work of any so far

i dont suppose anyone knows which serial was the SQUADRON king in 1998?

nearly all the shots from 1998 are of the special with the Capitol on it, and i dont think it was the same bird (this one was different from the one in 1995...)

@daddyairplanes

Your skins looks great!  I abmire your abilities to create skins in very detailed ways.  I can tell, you take care of every details well like I do with SF2 mods projects too.


Cheers!

challenging, and still not happy with the words "New Jersey". couldnt find what font the original was in. but otherwise came out pretty decent

[Wrench 9,421]

having some minor FM issues, and still missing the larger drop tanks, but I've started decaling the Hog
