@Wrench Might have some, but I don't got any

yeah im waiting for the Other Kevin to reply before getting really worried 

worst case scenario, i make some my own self. as one does when they can work PS or GIMP.....

I remember back in the day it took me like 18 hours or so to completely make a MIG-29 template out of scratch. It was worth it for a custom skin for a SIMHQ friend for LOMAC. I don't enjoy making templates at all, just not really fun.

Unfortuately, Kev, I don't. Never had any. If he's still around, maybe check with Pete Fredrico (pappychksix). He'd done some skins 'way back in the day.

no worries, can always make new ones myself. not trying to do too much, just the Pacer Plank birds (80 that had wings rebuilt and given GBU-15 capability) from about '76 through retirement in 82-83.

the current skins are actually decent for a base, but the paint jobs got fixed up and shinier after the depot work, and they all actually got SAC and wing badges back.

i wont say that starting them is.... enjoyable. but once you got things dialed in, it makes it easy to make what ever your hearts desire is. that part is fun, but take alot of time and cussing to get there

@Wrench didnt i see a thread a week or soo back about removing parts from pilots? would be really useful for a fakepilot object i got right now

scratch the fakepilot removal, just caught that thread

has anyone talked to spillone104 lately?  he shared a fake pilot several years ago, that would be useful with the hould dog pylons removed

Agreed, but I'll never enjoy making them though. I got better use of my time, and thankfully the templates I do need are already done. Though I do have to admit when i did the Super Hornet templates I wasn't that put off by it.
