[REQ] MiG-31 Foxbat skin

[Stealth]

Greetings.

 

As a fan of the MiG-31 Foxbat, I wanted to ask if there's anyone able and willing to do a reskin of the (relatively poorly meshed and skinned) Foxbat in LOMAC.

 

As reference to what the skin should look like (it's a demonstrator paintjob of some kind, probably from one of the early 1990s airshows), here's a set of phots, mostly taken from Axls Planes Gallery

If anyone's willing, please create at least 512x512. Higher res will be more than welcome

I'm working on it.

 

The template is now available (1024x512).

 

I don't know when it will be ready but it's in progress.

This is what I have already done.

 

 

The structure of the plane is done and some of the paint.

I have some small problems for the skin, I am only an initial. Could somebody of gifted complete it? We could then put our two names on the image. I left place.

 

I have put the file on the site.

 

This is the problems :

 

 

And I don't know how to make the reactors and the nose...

 

This is the model :

The reactors look good. As for the nose, it's still supposed to be a radome, so it, too, should probably stay gray, unless someone else would volunteer can fix that up as well.

 

My only slight grievance with the model is the position of the jet number. Any way you could shift it back, onto the vertical fins, so it'd be the same as the real photograph?

 

Either way, I gave it an in-game trial run and I have to admit it looks damn good. :) I don't think any of those three details you pointed out as problematic are so serious, because it's an NPC flyer and nobody will ever get into a knife fight with it. ;)

The definitive version is now on line.

 

 

I hope you will enjoy it. :yes:
