United  Airlines contract flight to Saigon ?

juicy target of opportunity for me any my trusted Su-11

[+Veltro2k 6,351]

I'm trying to decide if I should cut out the windows and door or just paint them on ?

[+daddyairplanes 10,243]

Personal preference: paint em. When reskinning for other airlines it makes it easier for minor variation and cargo conversions to be represented. Altough I tga most of the stuff on, it is helpful for the first skin to have tge windows so I can dial the scale in faster. But thats my preference

cutting that many objects will be nightmare and short trip to disaster im my opnion!

[Svetlin 545]

Cutting just the doors (or just one door) could be useful as these could be animated to open as canopy on a fighter and thus displayed in open position when on the ground. Just a thought...

[+Veltro2k 6,351]

yeah paint sounds like a better idea

 

thrust reversers working great

two more . ready for mapping

[+daddyairplanes 10,243]

takes a minute to strip all them funky test colors off and get back to bare metal.  before you all ask red line is there to help me adjust the window and door tgas when ready.

 

few more lines on the fuselage then on to the engines

don't forget, all them funky colors on the UV map helps you determine "what goes where"

[+daddyairplanes 10,243]

yes oh ancient and wise(arsed) one,  i was aware of that but my version sounded better than "i'm painting metal on before making decals"

 

 

now to make the windows and doors, approxamately to scale

getting ready for the first customer...... just a few more tweeks to dial in before mass production

[DEVIL11 31]

What kinda plane is this and what skins are gonna be in it just wondering and it looks good

[Wrench 9,849]

DC-8

[+daddyairplanes 10,243]

And the skin is gonna be bare blank metal.......

 

 

 

As per my method the airlines are decals assigned to the number 2 level. That is, the airlines become the serial numbers

[charlielima 328]

Ouch those engines were loud !
