For those who are interested, TCM (Turner Classic Movies) is airing "Towards the Unknown" tomorrow (November 12th) at 10:30 pacific time. Great movie with Willaim Holden along with aircraft you just can see anywhere else like the XB-61 and F-94C Starfire. Great movie if you haven't seen it... Pappy

Man,I thought you fell off the earth...welcome back!

Hey Ray, welcome aboard. Skinning isn't really simple, but not so hard once you get the hang of it. BUT there are some aircraft that are more involved than others, the F-4 Phantom being one of those. The simplist way I found was to find a simple aircraft with easy mapping like the F-31A (http://combatace.com/files/file/11260-f-31a-or-x-31a-skin/) and start from there. In the beginning, I use a very simple paint program (Diego showed me the error of my way and now I use Photoshop) to just draw the panel lines. Then I would add the skin in whatever form I thought was correct. You have to experiment ALOT. I am pretty sure there are videos somewhere in this site to get you started. Good Luck, Pete

Wow...I did the texture and decals back in 2005...Almost forgot it existed until now. Had to pull out one of my REAL old back up disks to find it. Sill as awesome as ever.....

Thanks Dave...It was a REAL quickie...about two hours worth of work...Had to take a break from my other projects..they get old after awhile (if you know what I mean).
