slick cowboy 142 Posted June 20, 2013 I started to repaint the skin of the F-11F mod. I increased the files to 1024 px and redid the panel likes. (never mind weather etc. still to do...) While testing i came across this fine darkish line between the nose and fuselage. I thought I was missing some skin, but that line appears in the old skins as well. Is this purely related to the model? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+76.IAP-Blackbird 3,557 Posted June 20, 2013 looks like the polys arent alligned properly. They has to have the same coordinates as the others to match perfectly, those were just positioned by MK1 Eyeball and not by coordinates Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slick cowboy 142 Posted June 20, 2013 ok... well if any modeller wants to volunteer :-) i'm only using the model as an exercise in making templates and weathering but it's be nice if it could be corrected the pilot positioning is also a bit off i think, he's too close to the seat...

+russouk2004 6,958 Posted June 20, 2013 The mesh can only be fixed in 3dsmax...move pilot with Y axis,(front to back),ie second set of numbers in the pilot position Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wrench 9,719 Posted June 20, 2013 looks like a material issue. be advised, you'll probably run into decal bleeds, too. (all of pasko's aircraft have it to some level) be aware, that all of Pasko's models are EXCEEDINGLY old, there's no access to MAX files, and that's that. you should find a buttload of skins & ini mods in the D/Ls that , iirc, ChampionVA56 did a few years ago.

+Stary 2,427 Posted June 21, 2013 there's no access to MAX files, and that's that. The file's by Fleet Defender and yes we do have the Max file in the not-for-casual-folks section, I were working, with the help of fellow Jules on the short-nosed aswell as early BuNos cockpit, it's still a long way though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wrench 9,719 Posted June 21, 2013 NOW that's good news. Thought that one had been lost! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slick cowboy 142 Posted June 21, 2013 yeah i had to distort the insignia on the air intake as it gets warped a bit... but i didn't use it as a decal, i just pasted it in the skin and distorted it a bit so that it compensates for the warping it's still not 100%, but it's ok (kinda...) well for now i just want to reskin it at a higher res and have some fun with weathering but an updated f-11f would be a nice addition of course :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slick cowboy 142 Posted June 22, 2013 so here's new skinning and weathering of the old model... i redid the panel lines since they were a bit too thick in the original skin imo and made the bird a bit more dirty it's be great to have an updated model of course, but for now... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
