gotta dirty her up a little bit then we'll actually get some numbers down

did the ground crew move? ___________________________________________________ I'd climb the Empire State Building, fight Muhammad Ali Just to have you baby close to me (10000 internet points to whoever gets it)

that sucks. but hey, the Mountain Home birds wont be public for a while. that entire band is getting released the OZ coded nuke birds on the other hand will be waiting for ya back on topic, just moved the recent tanker work off main HD and onto the backup...

so im going to guess no double checkin a couple new Bone skins right now

todays latest (on what was supposed to be a day long, two day project tops....)

practicing teh sneak pass for the weekends airshow...

first: no im not volunteering but textures are one of the things we can fix up easiest in theis community if you get someone with the interest in it. half to 3/4 of the skillsets around here amount to skinning, with ini work, decalling and modelling filling in the rest but cockpit models seems to be the holiest of teh rare holies anymore so that would be a rather big hold up

thank you for sharing, just downloaded it

and i see this, after doing the main body panels and a good ways into the wings and engines.... let me take a look at them. might still go with my own since i've put a chunk of time in already (and also have blown it up to 4096 prior to tracing panels). but never turn down an offer, ya dont know what it might hold meanwhile todays progress (had some of theat RL, plus just havent been feeling good last few days)

and i punish myself why considering i have two textures to go after this one, then the white lines along side......

back to work... or dammit, i'm gonna make my own temps again

them tail tgas need to come around 0.60-0.75 forward, around 0.25-0.35 up i worked on Vipers too much back to the 4th gen goodness, straight outta Osan

View File Bloody Hundreth Tanking into the 90s: 100th ARW skin for the KC=135R Bloody Hundreth Tanking into the 90s: 100th ARW skin for the KC=135R This skinpack is a representation of the 100th Air Refueling Wing at RAF Mildenhall during the 1990s. Tracing its lineage back to the 100th Bomb Group of WW2, the 100th has featured nose arts on its tankers throughout the year, often replicating or paying tribute to nose arts from the original Bloody Hundreth Included* two skins; one 1993 in the Shamu scheme and one 1998 in the AMC grey scheme decals for both skins including nose arts for all aircraft that had them Required a legal functioning install of any SF2 version KC-135R aircraft and sounds, found in the download section https://combatace.com/files/file/12454-mirage-factory-c-135ab-and-kc-135aer/ Installation unzip this mod, then install new mod folder categories to your mod folder (Aircraft to aircraft etc) allow overwrites fire up game, take off and go pass gas Known Issues -This is meant as eye candy. unfortunately, SF2 doesnt support air to air refueling so the best to be done is set up a recon mission and then park it in an orbit. -Also, the C-130 cockpit is not too accurate. it is included mainly so that it can be player selected (i had to test it somehow). remember that there is no air to air refueling in game, so these are more eye candy than operational birds *Wagner CD not included Credits BPAO (Olivier Anguille, RIP) - original model Dave- head of original released original project Dels- C-130 cockpit yakarov79- drogue basket model, original skin templates Wrench- tech advice, approval master extrodinaire daddyairplanes- research, ini edits, texture and tga work, new additions to templates ************************************************************* This is freeware; it CANNOT be distributed unless permissions are granted by myself.

Once some have been sourced (via new aircraft model or pod model) they will be added in -the Agean Ghost is not 100% accurate. there were not very good pics of the wings, plus model quirks meant some patches had to be put on each wing ot allow for color onthe airbrakes (all 4 of which were mapped to the two on the left wing) *Wagner CD not included Credits BPAO (Olivier Anguille, RIP) - original model Dave- head of original released original project Dels- C-130 cockpit yakarov79- drogue basket model, original skin templates Wrench- tech advice, approval master extrodinaire daddyairplanes- research, ini edits, texture and tga work, new additions to templates Big Thanks to Jimbib for research asssitance with the Metrea Agean Ghost camoflage ************************************************************* This is freeware; it CANNOT be distributed unless permissions are granted by myself.

aaaaaand now we wait

i think you all know what this means by now.......

pretty bird......

thats not a Mustang mandatory screenie, or sneak preview?

much as you wont like this answer make your own list. go through google, airfighters.net, pinterest, FB, etc gathering as many pics as you can and logging what ones you find. and feel lucky to only be doing 26. my OCD kicks in and im trying to place EVERY F-16A/B made by General Dynamics where they were in 1983, 1986 and 1989

thank you the trick is to find a pic of any old chrome (or other) piece of metal, then apply it as a layer over the spot you want shiny play with opacity as needed

10 of 15 done, churnin through nose arts like a of course i gotta ask if youre
