(WIP) VA-176 Skyraider skin

[+1977Frenchie 1,038]

To follow a previous post i made, here are some pictures of my VA-176 skin with the BEE. I would say it is about 95% done and should finish it soon. Still work to do on the BEE, but i now have a good view of the general thing.

 

Let me know what you think of it!

Almost done...

 

Minor modification to do to the Bee and a few checks to do and this one will be ready

Wicked.

The Bee looks way better.

He was kind of pixely the 1st post.

Did you skin the weapons pylons too ?

Almost 100% satisfied with the Bee. There is a slight adjustment to be made on it.

 

I skinned the wings, fuselage, tail, pylons, engine cone, engine, props and the inside of the airbrakes.

 

 

I will put 2 ''blank'' skin alongside the VA-176 one when i will put it for download so it will be a base for everyone to work on.

Don't forget their Battle E.

It appears they had a MiG killer too.

Hi CL,

 

You mean this ? :)

 

Of course i would not missed them, got the scale model on my desk! But not sure the red tip tail was really on this scheme?

 

As you all see, add some decals on the skin and hope to release this in the weekend. ''blanks will follow soon after!

A little more patience all, worked on it today and the BEE is done, prop is done, pylons are done and whole skin is done...

 

a few things here and there and wait will be over :)

[+1977Frenchie 1,038]

Not much have been done today... Work on the main wheels completed, right weapon pylon correction made, minor change to the prop.

 

What is left is the tail wheel and tail hook. After this, i'll be done

[+1977Frenchie 1,038]

Okay folks, skin is finished at my satisfaction. Could do more, but it would be too much

 

So what i done is wings, body, tail, weapons pylons, tail wheel, main wheels, tailhook. engine, propeller and speed brakes interior.

 

But the killer question : how do i upload it now? :)
