More'n one way to skin a cat

Recommended Posts

Here are preview shots of several generic skins I'm working on made using corrected, alternate, or low-visibility decals. All squadrons will be represented, though not all of them will have different markings on each skin.

Working on adding and correcting fuselage sashes now. Here's a peek at VF-143's alternate decals from their last cruise on CV-66. Corrected stock markings can be seen in the background.

The bad news is that in order to correct the existing sashes, I had to double the size of the decal canvas, which means doubling the size of the decal in the layout. No worries. When I release the corrected stock decals, I'll include rewritten decal layouts for the stock skins as well.

Looks great! Do you have any plans to re-do your Top Gun movie skins from the TMF Tomcat for the TW version?

The more involved correction of VF-213's tail art. This is both their primary and alternate decals. The Low-viz will of course be different.

As to any Top Gun skins, yeah probably. I already have the decals made up to do it for the MF Tomcat. Unless TW gives us as a DLC the 100-GR, 105-GR, or 110-GR, I don't foresee providing them for the TW Tomcat. Plus in order to do the mid-80's TPS, I'd need some templates. I have them already for the MF cat so that makes my life easier and my decision less difficult.

VF-142 had even more decal issues. Those are now fixed. Stock decals now look like this.

Thought I'd be done by now. Alas, these two decal sets took a LOT longer than I expected.

Not much more left to go. Missing Fin decals for the stock squadron markings need doing and then the stock corrections will be finished. I'll release those as soon as that's done and I'll continue work on the alternate and early low-viz skins.
