View File TalonTiger Here's a Tigerskin i knocked together for the excellent F/A 37 Talon , hope you like it. There are no decals but all instructions (i think) are included. I really like this aircraft and i can't wait to see it in its final form. As with the rest of my skins, if you feel you can improve it,for instance by adding decals or whatever, then feel free and repost it if you do .If you want to use it some other way then just ask. I also have a template i made for this, though a very simple one ,if anyone would like it. Submitter Deadhead Submitted 09/04/2006 Category Fictional/What If Skins

Yes m8 you're right ,sorry about that ,thoughtless of me. I also forgot to give credits for the creators of the model but i guess if you have it you have the credits too.

View File Blue Viggen This is a JA-37 painted to commemorate the 75th Anniversary of the Swedish Air Force,in 2001. I've included the only references i had so if anyone knows what if anything is missing feel free to update it. Tbh i got a bit bored and frustrated trying to get everything right so its probably not as good as it should be but i think it looks ok in flight. I forgot to add the credits for the makers of the Viggen model but i guess you know thwm if you have the model,but anyway a big thank you to them :)). I also should have said that you need to create a folder called "Blue" in the Viggen folder to unzip to. Submitter Deadhead Submitted 08/29/2006 Category J-35 Drakken and J-37 Viggen Skins

Great work, big gratz to all involved. This has long been one of my all-time favourite aircraft so thx again :)) I'm working on a commemorative paint scheme atm , will post it soon .

Thx for the advice guys will try what you suggest, the problem was not with skin but with adding to the weapons i'm a total noob to doing that. You're right Jarink it is a Tigermeet skin , Belgian Air Force from somewhere around 1998 i think, i've had a Revell 48th scale model of this F-16 for some years now and never built it (probably never will now cos i get very little time for modelling these days) and i have a few photos in Air Forces Monthly magazine so i have plenty references but its not easy translating them into a decent skin,least not for me hehe. Thx again m8s will let u know how i get on.

Hey all , how you all doing? I'm here to make a pest of myself again . the problem i have is that i need to make a black version of the F-16 Centreline Tank to go with a skin i'm working on and despite reading all the FAQ's and the knowledgebase and playing around with .ini files and the weapon editor i just dont seem to be able to do it , probably cos i'm stupid and missed something important but anyway i just can't do it . So please would someone take pity on and old fool and tell me in the simplest possible terms what i need to do? Hoping to hear from you tho there's no real rush cos as i say its for a skin which i am nowhere near finishing yet , but just as a taster here's a screenie of progress so far. P.S. if anyone is already working on this skin please let me know so i can save myself some heartache cos this is really difficult for me but i would like to see it finished and flying.

OK Caesar and all others who took the time to explain things i think i've finally got the hang of this ,just tried it and i can now hang an ECM pod under one wing and a chaff/flare pod under the other so guess the rest should be easy. It's just a shame that you're limited to 6 groups (sigh) but i suppose things would just get silly if you could have all the stations carrying different weapons lol. So once again many thx.

View File Winter RAF F-4 Don't know if this is particularly accurate or historic, but iv'e seen similar temporary winter camouflage on several RAF aircraft over the years which were applied for excercises in Norway.All i did was apply "white" areas over the green of the stock RAF Phantom,which is just how the RAF did it with washable paint. Hope you like this ,add it to textures as with the Tigerskin i posted earlier Submitter Deadhead Submitted 07/25/2006 Category Fictional/What If Skins

Well didn't exactly review the skin m8 but did put screenies on my thread in the skinning and mods forum where i asked about making dis-similar weapon loads (which i still can't work out btw lol) if u mean the winter skin i hope you'll find it in downloads soon.

View File Tigerskin F-4 Used this with F-4M for RAF (FGR2 would work i guess and maybe some others ) you'll need to add the texture name to config file but i guess anyone can do that if i can work it out Submitter Deadhead Submitted 07/25/2006 Category Fictional/What If Skins

I'll see what i can do m8 but as i say i'm no expert can u tell me what planes u had in mind, in the meantime i'll try posting the F-4 on downloads page

Thx Sidewinder for the warm welcome and speedy reply, i'll certainly do as you suggest and hopefully i will be able to make sense of it all ( wait for more posts begging for help lol ) , as to skins i haven't really done anything serious yet except play about with the F-4 where i made a fictional tiger skin and altered the stock RAF skin to look ( a bit ) like a temporary winter scheme. Theyre good enough for me but i don't know if i feel up to posting them here lol. When Il2-skins was running i posted a few there ( all fictional cos i'm not really into researching proper skins nor skillful enough to make them work ) including a tiger skin Me109 and various others and they seemed fairly popular with some people but i think i'm gonna need a lot of practice before i post any here but here's a couple of pics hope you like them
