+daddyairplanes Posted December 23, 2018 Posted December 23, 2018 its a start. you will need some improvising on the corrugated building though. if i was doing it off the provided pics, i would do alot of cut and paste from the displayed end of the corrugated to make the longer segment, then cut and paste doors from the the little gray unit. also just blue out the placard for the building number, will look better and not with a blurry white zone. i am not certain if you are intending the above as one skin, or peices of two as they are irl. finally, much can be done with manipulating exising images. but sometimes you gotta improvise and rework things to fit better. thats what really builds ones Photoshop/GIMP skills! 1 Quote

You are absolutely correct a lot of work needs to be done. It was just intended to show that I am interested in these two photos and I will take them into consideration as a skin for this project. 3 Quote

Viggen Posted December 26, 2018 Posted December 26, 2018 Oh man seeing those RLBs brings me back to Kandahar five years ago! If you're interested in making some different versions, I should still have a few pictures for reference. 1 Quote
